Video Game Palooza, in conjunction with Indy Pop Con and Reboot Indie Game Awards are giving away a $10,000 grand prize to an independent game company who wins “best in show” the weekend of June 26-26, 2015
WOW! and GAME ON! is all we can say after an amazing, record-breaking weekend at Indy Comic Con. We had a fantastic partnership with Microsoft, Extra Life and Riley Children’s Hospital. We had a huge arcade (Donated by DreamAuthentics) with about 12 classic arcade games like Pac-Man, Galaga, Centipede, Killer Queen and more. People donated to our charity foundation to come in and play. We had about 2,000 people come through our arcade over Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It was gratifying seeing the younger generation see arcade games and even better seeing kids INTERACTING TOGETHER with their friends (and parents) in playing games. In today’s society many kids play in isolation by themselves and only talk with people online when playing XBOX or PlayStation for example.
We are proud to create CREATIVE, FUN and ENTERTAINING environments for our kids to LEARN and work as TEAMS to communicate, grow, expand all with productive fun games.
We feel blessed and priviledged to have touched so many and are greatly looking forward to our next events coming up in June and October!
The children of Harrison Hill School of Inquiry and Performing arts celebrated a day of ACADEMIC SUCCESS by receiving a celebration night at the DreamAuthentics Arcade with their parents! Harrison Hill Elementary performed a month of integrated learning with students and their parents. Sucessful families had a chance to win a night of retro video game fun and pizza! Many parents and kids “re-lived” the classic games together in a night of fun, academic success! Check out pictures and a heartfelt letter from the school by FOLLOWING THIS LINK
