Behold the official Slam Bolt Scrappers shirt design! Please note that it is the best shirt of all shirts.

BUY IT IN THE STORE NOW!

Our artist, Jacques, drew up this awesome design (known as “The Hypercube”), and we turned it into a shirt that everyone on the Fire Hose team could wear for PAX East. We’ve been getting a lot of questions about them, like, “THIS SHIRT IS THE BEST SHIRT OF ALL SHIRTS, how can I get one?”

Well today is your lucky day! Our new store is open so you can buy this awesome shirt now for $14.99. COME TO THE STORE. BUY A SHIRT.

Fire Hose out.

The scrapping continues during day 2 of PAX East! Things are even crazier than yesterday – lots of cosplayers have come out after scouting the expo hall yesterday, so everyone’s having a lot of fun. Not to mention SBS is drawing some HUGE crowds. We’re all thrilled with how things are going. So, if you’re at PAX East, definitely stop by our booth, 1133, to play some Slam Bolt Scrappers before it comes out on Tuesday.

I’ll be posting all of our pictures on our Fan Page, so stop by there for the complete Fire Hose PAX journey. And don’t forget to follow us on Twitter (@FireHoseGames) for up to the minute news about our crazy awesome fun expo time.

Hey Scrappers, have we got some cool news for you: We’re bringing Slam Bolt Scrappers to PAX East! Now that the conference is once again on our home turf (we originally appeared in the indie showcase last year, so it’s very cool to come full circle and have our own booth), the Fire Hose team will be out in full force telling people all about SBS at our fully customized and super awesome booth, #1133.  So be sure to stop by, say hello, and check out all the never-before-seen gameplay we’ve put in since you last saw the game.  I’ll also be doing personal walkthroughs, so if you really like my walkthrough video, get your requests in now and I’ll walk you through anything and everything about SBS.  Just like the video.  But in person.  SWEET, right?  We’ve got a few other surprises in store for you, so stay tuned for more info as PAX approaches.

Extra exciting: Last night, the super secret booth guest we’ve lined up for you all was revealed in a new, 3-part Joystiq article.  That’s right, Chris Hecker, the man behind the upcoming indie blockbuster, SpyParty, will have a station set up in our booth to show off the game!  I’m personally thrilled to have him joining us at PAX and can’t wait to get my hands on some sniper-on-spy mindgame action.  Our booth, #1133, is also right across from EA and our Cambridge neighbors at Demiurge Studios, who will be showing off their new title, Shoot Many Robots.  Our Alma Mater, MIT: GAMBIT, will also be a mere one booth away – be sure to check out their latest goods as well.  So, if you’re stopping by our booth, be ready for gaming Nirvana!

If you’re a developer type, we’ll also be in San Francisco at GDC next week to chat about developmental stuff and show off SBS.  So, if you see us, come and say hello!
