#upstart2018

Particpating in Maryland Institute College of Art's Pop Up and Pitch Exhibit: UP/Start 2019 was a pivotal event in Boba's history. It not only has allowed us to take our studio further and become an LLC, but the process taught us how to persevere, establish sustainable business practices, and--most importantly--how to connect to audiences, even those who may not know games. Our team was fortunate enough to make it through UP/Start all the way until the end and it made an incredible impact on us. Today, 28 other teams have that opportunity. Please come out to Pop-Up & Pitch to support other creatives until 7 tonight!

Wow! We can't believe it's already been one month since UP/Start! So much has happened since then and we'll be sharing it all soon (including an announcement tomorrow--so stay tuned!)! Until then, enjoy the official photos from the event by Chris Meyers! As always, thank you all so much for your love and support! ❤️ Boba Studios

Turns out pitching for the UP/Start judges will be in the same classroom where we started Squirrely Roo Rabbit! Squirrely Roo, while available for Macs, wasn't built on one, but this one shown here was used to display all our presentations for critiques. Pitching may have just gotten a little more comfortable! 😊
