Atlas Launch Party Recap

 

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Atlas Launch Party in October!

On October 27th, Pixxel, Arelyna, and the rest of the War Dragons team welcomed players to celebrate the launch of Atlas with the team. We so appreciated having community members join us in person and on the Twitch stream. We could not have done any of this without our players!

 

 

A Dragons Community visit to Pocket Gems​:

The first part of the day was spent hosting members of the War Dragons community and our Share Your World Contest winner at Pocket Gems HQ, right in the heart of San Francisco. They joined the development team for a day of tours, meet & greets, and an in-depth preview of the new world feature, Atlas! This day included getting to playtest a paper version of Fight Pits and having in-depth sessions with various developers to give feedback on events, currency, etc. Some of their suggestions and feedback to the team have since been implemented into the game.

Check out their visit below:

Atlas Party at Folsom Street Foundry:

The party itself took place that evening with a combination of Pocket Gems employees and War Dragons community in attendance. The event created interactions between developers and players that gave each side of the game valuable feedback to take moving forward. The event included iPads set up running Atlas and fully geared out, an armory wheel, and a Twitch stream of a variety of guests. 

These guests included a mixture of Twitch streamers, artists, and developers. PGDave appeared to chat about Atlas and its development path. Vulpsie and AustenMarie, both artists and Twitch streamers, joined us to talk about their entered creations into the April Twitch Creative Creates a War Dragon community event. The stream also included a reading from BeledinesSoul’s book, Dragon Speaker, which is the first of her series.

And here are some of our favourite photos taken during the day!

Had to make sure people know what was up in that room.

Folsom Street Foundry is an amazing venue to check out in SF.
 

Party on!

As Atlas continues to roll out to all War Dragons players, we’ll have more news, updates, and features to share in 2018. We truly appreciate everyone who was able to attend our Atlas launch party and tune in to the show! Thanks for joining us for such a special event!
