New Trailer
Aha! You liked that didn’t you? Again, it’s straight gameplay footage taken from our development builds from our in-office play sessions.

Here’s some stuff that didn’t make the trailer:
Pax East
So yes, we’ll be at PAX East this year with a playable demo of Guns of Icarus Online. So if you’re in Boston this weekend, make sure to check out our progress and get in on the action at the Kickstarter Arcade in room 103.
