I brought my Artcade machine out to a Regional Burning Man Festival over the past weekend. Now I have done many events with my machine, but this was the first one that I went to with GameEx (with any front end program really).

It was great. Everyone who played any of the Fan Games and a few other titles were blown away with how professional the machine looked and how everything was presented. I didn't seem like a computer in a box, and no one asked about that this time either.

And then there was the magic party button. Karaoke.

So I couldn't get a mic working before I went out there, and my dumb ass forgot the megaphone.

So one morning I woke up, had a couple beers and put on the Karaoke. "I'm on a Boat" to be precice. Then to "Three Little Pigs." At this point I can hear people singing along from outside the walls of my big blue tent. Now I put on "Baby Got Back." One by one, heads started poking in from around the corner. We had them a beer and bring them in. Next thing you know, there are 20 people hanging out inside, all screaming at the Artcade Machine songs such as "Bohemian Rhapsody," "I Saw the Sign," and "Under the Sea." Who needs a microphone when you have a chorus of drunks. Chorusoke!

So, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who helped make and design this program. Also a thanks to everone that had helped me learn how to make my theme. It looked pretty spiffy. Within a few days or so I'll post some screens of my theme.

But for now, see a couple pics of the camp.
