You find yourself alone at your booth at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. A mob of caffeinated gamers waits just outside the expo floor, 30 feet from your booth on the same aisle as the entrance. As Europe's "The Final Countdown" ends as the stampede runs into the expo floor to get a glimpse of the DuckTales remake.

A few of them stop at your booth to pick up one of the XBox controllers placed enticingly close to the swarms. You hand them business cards. You pitch them your game. Maybe they buy a Desura code if they're in an especially good mood. They leave as you thank them for playing your humble little game.

Welcome to PAX East.
In case you missed it, we were at PAX East a couple weeks ago. No, we weren't in the Megabooth. They didn't let us in. We were instead placed right it the Heart of the Swarm near the Southeast Entrance, across from Team Meat. Three days in a row we stood there, pitching the game, letting people play it on our newly purchased computers and HDTV's (which refused to cooperate with us for the entire weekend. All manner of freezes, lockups, and zero video signal). Luckily when it DID work, Children of Liberty looked great. 100fps, 720p, glorious hand drawn animation. Overall a fantastic showing. If you came by the booth, make sure let us know in the comments!

Of course, we were not showing off the old build, but the one we've spent the last year revising, which is now available on Desura! Here are the latest patch notes for 0.4.1:
ADDED
FIXED
REDCOAT
All this on top of the year's worth of changes we made for 0.4!
We have a lot on our plate at the moment, talking to all manner of people, companies, and press about the game. Keep an eye out for it, and please help alpha fund us on Desura and vote us up on Steam Greenlight!
PAX East was incredible, but I'm glad it's over.

Are you planning on ever putting out an update here?
Soon! We're crunching like crazy but don't want to put out anything broken or what could be perceived as a "downdate."
Thanks for 0.4.1 !
I heard about this game somewhere, I guess I'll have to check it out.
Yes I guess so!
Do i need unity to play the game?
The version available on Desura does not need Unity to play. It is a standalone executable for both PC and Mac.
Only the demo on our website needs the Unity Web Player to play.
hey a saw you poster at NNHS
this game looks interesting
I would try out but Im 16 and you most likely have a charicter with a teenagers voice
if you dont i could try
maybe
The game stars four kids, ranging from 8-14. You are definitely within range! Message me your info and I'll send you an audition packet.
As of right now Unity doesn't have a native Linux exporter, however it does have support for Google Native Client. We've been discussing releasing a version for NaCl, and if we feel like that version lives up to our expectations, and it's accepted as a Linux build on Desura, then we'll definitely release it.
