AnimeFest 2016 (Aug 12-15) Dallas

#1 Post by KittyKatStar »

Heya,

This is posted pretty early but that way it'll give people lots of time to think about and maybe, maybe, maaaaybe...

Consider meeting up in Dallas with fellow VN devs? :mrgreen:

https://animefest.org/ <- information on the convention

I also posted early since prices do go up after Feb.

List of devs confirmed currently.


^ If you'd like to be added to the list (even in just a 'maybe' section) feel free to post here and I'll update periodically.

It's pretty laidback. We pretty much just hang out, eat good food and talk about VNs. ^_^v

Hope to see you there! I'll be sure to bring some delicious maple syrup from MapleFlagLand! :D

As is usually the case, I will have a table in the dealer's room. Anyone is welcome to stop by and say hi. We'll also be running various panels - details to come later - but we'll very likely reprise the visual novel showcase panel, so be thinking about making a trailer for your new or upcoming VNs that you'd like to promote.

I was originally thinking of going to San Japan this year, but might decide to go to AnimeFest instead if my parents are still living in the Dallas area at the time.

I'm going to try to attend. I live in the same town as someone who will be in the dealers' room and has offered to bring me along in exchange for working there, but I'm gonna try to make it even if that doesn't pan out.

I would like to go, since I live in the same state. I don't have a car or any local friends in the area who are going (this is not a barrier to getting there but it IS a barrier to getting around)

I was planning to take the year off from conventions in 2016 but if there is a big VN meeting happening I may justify going as a "business trip." That was a lot of fun 2 years ago!

All things permitting I'd like to make the trip, assuming nobody minds a total greenhorn tailing them, asking dumb questions and whatnot

Will work in exchange for fight game buddies.

Giving a quick bump since February is almost over and the prices will start rising. =) So if you're still on the fence, please consider. Also will update the list...
