That Dragon, Cancer

That Dragon, Cancer on Sale & Numinous Games team is heading to GDC

Hi All,

I just wanted to send out a quick note as we sit here in the Seattle airport on layover to San Francisco to say thank you for your support over the last few months as we've released this game and all that comes with this sort of thing.

We're on our way to GDC because our project was nominated for the Independent Game Festival this year for Excellence in Narrative and Excellence in Audio. We're honored to be part of the festival, and we're looking forward to meeting more people at the IGF pavilion as we demo the game once more.

We couldn't have completed this project without the support of our backers, and we couldn't have atteneded GDC without the generosity of a few who raised the funds for us to go! And, we wouldn't be able to continue making games with out the support of all of you!

So, thank you!

This is also a big week for the filmmakers of Thank you for Playing, who were able to raise the funds to release their film about our family and the game in theaters. The film will be premiering in NYC, San Francisco and Los Angeles on Friday.

We hope to see some of you at GDC!

-Ryan, Amy, Josh, Jon, Ryan C, Brock, and Mike
