Dash and Smash News

Local playtest completed!

[p]Just wanted to leave a small update about our playtest during the weekend!

Last Saturday we had the great honor of welcoming our friends, family, industry colleagues, and a few other brave souls to test out Dash and Smash!

And what a successful night it turned out to be.

There was laughter, competition, and maybe even a little trash talk. We couldn’t have asked for a better crowd!
