A Message from Greg

Hey, Best Friends--

So, in 30 minutes, we’re hosting the Kinda Funny Games Showcase. We have 69 games from developers all around the world, and if everything goes correctly, we’re going to have a lot of people watching. It’s a big day for us, and that means I have something to say to you.

Thank you.

This is the most important thing I’ve done in my 12 years in the industry. It’s tough to get eyes on your video game in 2018. We talk about discoverability a lot on Kinda Funny Games Daily, right? Steam, PS4, Xbox, Switch -- they’re all bursting with games. That’s why this Saturday follow-up to the Game Awards is so important. We’re giving a platform to 69 games that deserve to be seen, and we literally couldn’t do it without you.

We’re inviting talented developers into our house today, and when I say “our house” I mean yours and mine. You built this with us. The reason this Showcase can happen is because you’re a Best Friend and helped Kinda Funny get enough recognition that the industry sees us a viable option to announce and release video games.

Think about that.

The photo above is Nick and I in the spare bedroom. Studio 1. It’s the nice camera we bought from the first Patreon launch. Think about how far we’ve come. We’re about to host a fucking video game press conference we created on Twitter, got in Variety, and will share with thousands on Twitch and YouTube.

I’m in awe of that. This is what I mean when I say Kinda Funny’s already exceeded any expectations I had for it. This is the evolution of my Game Awards speech. This is Kinda Funny using the power it has for good -- to showcase games from passionate individuals and teams that need help.

I’m so goddamn proud of you and what you’ve built with us. Thank you for today, yesterday, and the insane 2019 we have planned.
