SSGC: Stray Sheep Game Challenge

We’re starting a new thing as a kind of self imposed challenge. Mostly just to give our friend group an excuse to actually play video games all the way through and expand our knowledge of some games we might not have played otherwise.

Once a month, every month. We are going to have everyone at the studio play through a game that someone has suggested. (Ideally one the others have not played.) 

Report back how they liked it, rate it 1-10, and mark yourself off as having finished the challenge for the month or not.

Denote your animal inspiration for the playthrough. 

Then we’ll track success or failure and rotate the game chooser to the next in line.

Whoever gets the most games knocked out gets a prize. And the prize is bragging rights and like, some snacks or something.

If any of our readers want to follow along with us, let us know how your journey went for a chance to win this amazing prize.

New Team, New Blog, New Game!

Hey there Quiz Quest fans! It’s been awhile. We sure have been busy. As of Fanime 2017 our Quiz Quest series of games have been running for a full year!

It’s thanks to fans like you that we’re able to continue putting out the greatest quiz show experience we can con after con. We can’t thank you enough for coming out and supporting us by playing our goofy games. The support, pure enjoyment, and above all the support you have shown us means everything For those who weren’t able to make it to Fanime this year to see it in person, we would like to take a moment to talk about our new game and let you know how you can take part in the fun.

We’re proud to announce the completion of Quiz Quest: DX!

Quiz Quest: DX is the biggest and newest addition to our Quiz Quest series of game show panels! By far our most ambitious project yet, it’s chock full of video game trivia from both retro and modern titles. But this time, you can prove your mettle with more than just trivia knowledge.

Bursting with off the wall video game challenges and pushing the player’s limits with exciting betting mini-games, there is enough content in this adventure to fill multiple shows end on end. No two playthroughs will be the same! 

Blast back to the year DXVIII! Players guide the knights Redmond and Blueford through a perilous journey taking back the Kingdom of Corneria’s riches from the grasp of the Immortal Dragon, Gordian and his vile minions. Whoever brings back the most gold will surely earn the most glory, and with it the favor of the King. 

Do battle and grow strong with your fellow knights against the evil army of Gordian!  Each quiz, mini-game, or video challenge rewards players with gold, used to determine the ultimate winner!

Item shops, intense video challenges, and wild bets against your fellow player will swing the balance of wealth back and forth. If you play well and play smart, your team may come out the victor! 

Can you, the people, save the Kingdom of Corneria from the Immortal Dragon, Gordian? Find out at a convention near you!

Quiz Quest: DX had a great showing at FanimeCon this year and we’re doing our best to bring it to SabotenCon 2017 in Phoenix, AZ on September 1-4th.

Have an idea for quiz questions, video challenges, or anything else? Drop us some of your best! We may just use it in the game! 

 For further details and updates on the game, watch this blog or follow us on Twitter, Twitch, or Youtube. We will be updating with dev logs frequently from here on.

Thank you all, very very much, for making our game shows the best community experience we’ve ever been a part of.

See you soon!

Sabotencon: My Big Debut(A post-con journal)

Sabotencon 2016 has come and gone, and here is my text post about the entire experience. TLDR before the cut: I won a Judge’s Award during the masquerade at Sabotencon, and the Quiz Quest Undertale panel was a huge success, with the attendants being able to finish the game! I will go into MUCH more detail under the cut!

Our fantastic robot host managed to steal the hearts of the Saboten judges in the masquerade to go home with a Judge’s Award.  Thanks @pickleinspector for making the panel an experience that couldn’t even nearly be replicated without you.

Hey There Quiz Quest Fans!

We are proud to announce Quiz Quest: Undertale will be making an appearance at Saboten-Con 2016 in Phoenix, AZ! It’s being held in Camelback Room B, Friday the 2nd, from 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM. 

For those not in the know, Quiz Quest: Undertale is the first cooperative trivia video game specifically geared towards conventions! Grab a friend, grab an enemy, grab a stranger, and show up to compete for fabulous prizes and the glory of being a big, giant nerd in front of all these people. Nobody leaves empty handed. Satisfaction guaranteed. If we’re not the most fun you’ve had this convention, we’ll give you your panel entry fee of $0.00 back.

We have a longer panel this time! Maybe this will be the first time the game gets finished in it’s entirety. We believe in you guys and absolutely cannot wait to do this again for everyone. 

If you’re interested, check out our Twitter for more frequent updates, or our Youtube for past events like this.

See you at Sabo!

Thank you all for making Quiz Quest: Undertale a success!

Thank you everybody. Thank you Fanime 2016. Because of you we got close to ONE HUNDRED people attending Fanime’s first ever cooperative quiz video game. That is an incredible number for a first appearance and we hope you liked it as much as we loved putting it on for you.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for attending, participating, and for all the kind words before, during, and after the game. You fought bravely and were rewarded for your efforts. 

This is not the end of Quiz Quest. We’re applying to bring it to Saboten-Con 2016 in Phoenix, AZ. September 2-5th. This time we’re applying for a 2 hour timeslot in an effort to allow more time to finish the fantastic adventure out of the underground.

An extra huge thanks to our amazing robot host @pickleinspector for putting on the show for us. If anybody is interested in keeping up with us, follow us on our Twitter or Youtube. We’ve just put up a video of the entire panel. HERE IT IS.

RAN INTO SOME PRETTY COOL NERDS AT FANIME!!

(Mettaton ran an amazing Quiz Show that totally blew me away! I hope that he and his team release the game to to public so I can play it again. If you know him, please tag him!)

(Alphys [ @lakesandquarries ] was such a sweetheart and put together a great Undertale gathering! On top of that, she had freckles– SO CUTE!)

[straysheepstudio-blog]

We’re glad you could make it! Thanks for coming and playing with us! Our wonderful Mettaton host is @pickleinspector As of right now we don’t have any big plans to release the game as it is now to the public. If we did it would need a complete rewrite as it’s meant as a convention panel experience and not even a little bit ready for party game use. This game is held together with bubble gum, twine, and the collective dreams of everyone on the team. We hope you can come by and try it again next year!
