We're very excited to have MinnMax's Sarah Podzorski and Haley MacLean flying to Japan to record the next MinnMax Spotlight, covering 17-Bit and their upcoming "physics-based dungeon brawler" Awaysis (wishlist it now as a thank you, please). This means we're hosting the first ever MinnMax community meetup in Japan! Happening the same time as BitSummit, join Haley and Sarah from 7-9pm on Friday, May 22nd under the Sanjo Bridge. Nothing shady, it's apparently a chill meetup place for folks around BitSummit. You don't need a BitSummit pass to come hang out. Nothing fancy. You don't need to be a Patreon supporter to attend, feel free to bring a friend.

MinnMax Community Meetup

Friday, May 22nd - 7-9pm

Under the Sanjo Bridge (pictured below) in Kyoto, Japan

Go to the Sanjo Station, head across the river to the West side. Near the Starbucks, with the address of...

Japan, 〒604-8004 Kyoto, Nakagyo Ward, Nakajimacho, 113 近江屋ビル 1F

The MinnMax Spotlight isn't a sponsored video but you're welcome to wishlist Awaysis on Steam as a thank you for 17-Bit opening their doors to Sarah and Haley. Awaysis is inspired by The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords, has a legendary Nintendo character designer working on it (who also worked on Mother 3), and features a soundtrack from Chip Tanaka (Metroid, Super Mario Land, Dr. Mario, EarthBound).

Let us know in the comments below if you have any questions about the meetup or the upcoming MinnMax Spotlight on Awaysis. Please click this link and RSVP so we can get a rough idea of how many people to expect! https://forms.gle/cMJn1xtVo8f7eSS97

Man, I wish I could go so bad, I haven’t been back to see family in Japan in forever.

I won't be able to go but I hope we can see some content with the 8-4 team! It's time for one of the biggest collabs of the century. Two giants coming together for the greater good.

Too bad is not in Tokyo, would have attended immediately! Hope you’ll have fun in Kyoto , Sanjo bridge is beautiful spot for a meetup

This would be so amazing! Have fun!

Excited to see Haley visit Japan (and cross the ocean!) for the first time. All I ask is for y'all to show us your shopping haul at the end so I can shop vicariously through you

Where have the browser games gone? Are they all mobile games now? Are there any good ones I just don't know about?

I’m going to try and go, at least from 7-8. There’s a BitSummit party at a cafe nearby from 8-11pm if anyone wants to join after! Hosted by HYPER REAL, publisher of Dome-King Cabbage.
