God Save Birmingham News

[p]Survivors,
[/p][p]We are bringing the old (like, 14th-century-old) England experience to New England! Come visit our booth at PAX East in Boston!
[/p][p]At Booth #15035, you will find the good faithful farmer’s struggle in bigger-than-life size on walls, accompanied with multiple PCs with the actual game ready-to-play.[/p][p]\[Here is a mock-up of the booth to give you a better idea of what to look for][/p][p][/p][p]The playable version will be based on our current alpha, with many of the fundamental systems in place. As the alpha versioning indicates, this will be the foundation we continue adding more depth to.
[/p][p]If you tried out our pre-alpha last year, you’ll find new elements such as the Journal system, new weapons, health-related stats, durability/sharpness, and more![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We will also have a special trinket for those who play at our PAX booth. You can get a luggage tag to accompany you on your trip back home from PAX![/p][p]
\[Why not carry a bit of God Save Birmingham everywhere?][/p][p][/p][p]For anyone who cannot make it to PAX, we are also planning for opportunities where you can try out God Save Birmingham. We will be sharing more details as soon as we can, so please stay tuned to our social channels and Discord![/p][p]

There's something extremely English about the slack-skinned medieval peasantry of God Save Birmingham. They all look like they ate a lot of sausage sandwiches in their time. And soon, food will be able to have its revenge—one of the new weapons being added to the survival/crafting sim is a big old haunch of meat...
