We've Been Interroga... We Mean Interviewed!


It's funny how good fortune often comes from the most unlikely of places, when you least expect it. Thanks to the undisputed social media king of brevity known as Twitter, I had the lucky happenstance to have the fine gentleman who runs ThriftyGamer.ca send me an internet message, a digital smoke signal, indicating that he finds our stuff to be decidely not sucky. I'd even go so far as to say he really enjoys them.

From this, we have collaborated on an article that can now be viewed over at said frugal gaming zone. We happily answered a few questions about what we do, and sent along a sample of our work so they could get all tactile on our junk. Results were decidedly positive.

So, go check them out; apart from the article about us (which includes an exclusive discount code, by the way), the folks at ThriftyGamer also do a fine job of reviewing the latest digital distractions and keeping tabs on how to save some money when it comes time to plunk down your shekels for 'em.

See Us In Meatspace On October 15th!


I can only imagine many of you have been wondering what PixelPerls has been up to as of late, what shenanigans we've been a contributing party to. Fear not, fellow gamers, for we have not unceremoniously fallen off the face of the planet. No, quite to the contrary: we have been preparing.

For the unlikely, but somehow inevitable, zombie apocalypse, you ask? Nay, though construction of our bunker is moving along swimmingly. We are gathering our resources in preparation for our very first appearance as a craft fair vendor, a purveyor of homespun curiosities. PixelPerls will be vending our pixely wares at the annual Maine Ultimate Yard Sale hosted by local radio station 99.9 The Wolf. The event will be held on October 15th, from 9AM - 2PM EST.

If you happen to be in or near the state of Maine on that day, please feel free stop in and say hello in person. If you happen to mention you found out about our whereabouts via this very blog, we may even give you a special stalker discount.

NINJA EDIT: Due to inclement weather concerns, the event has been moved to October 22nd.
