Hey backers! It’s Giving Tuesday!!! Are you familiar with it? It’s like Black Friday or Cyber Monday, but instead of being focused on mark-downs its about donating to your favorite organizations. We thought this would be a great time to let you know that last week we relaunched our Patreon!!
Y’all especially know how important crowd-funding is to us. Everything we’ve been able to do has been thanks to the support of all of you. GaymerX never could have existed without Kickstarter, and that’s help us grow into Midboss, which brought about Gaming in Color and 2064: Read Only Memories. So we wanted to make sure you all knew that we’re trying something new!
The account has existed in some form for a while, we became so inspired by the company’s presence at GX4 that we decided to hustle on making it into an active space for all of you. What does that mean exactly? Well, we’ve completely overhauled the account with new goals and rewards so that we’re giving you even more than ever before. We’ve already hit our first goal of launching a Discord just for Patreon supporters, and we’re about $20 away from doing a monthly stream with Midboss employees, plus Patrons will be the ones picking the game! We'd like to use today to get to $1000 a month, and we hope you’ll help.
You’ve done so much to support us over the years, and we’re hoping we can channel some of your generous energy into a more on-going space. We’re in our cold winter, so to speak, and the financial support we receive through Patreon will help give us that extra boost we need to keep things operating smoothly.
We’re working hard to be the best company possible for all of you, and we have a lot of cool stuff to share with you in return for your support. So please, this holiday season support your queer family over at Midboss by becoming a backer on Patreon!
Thanks for a great GaymerX + Post Con Survey!

WE DID IT!!!!!
Emi here, GaymerX Photography and Social! <3
Thanks to everyone who came out and played with us!
This year’s event was so magical and we know it’s because of the time we spent with all of you.
We had such amazing attendees, staff, sponsors, panelists, exhibitors, performers, bosses, and a great hotel crew that brought it together in the best way.
Our team has been resting and working hard behind the things to help share what it was like to be there, but in the meantime you can check out these great posts about GaymerX Year Four!
Now that GX4 has come to a close, we’re turning our focus to making GaymerX East have the best first year we can. Don’t forget that tickets are on sale now, and our Early Bird price is only $40!

Feeling super inspired by GX4 and want to share that with our attendees? We decided to extend our panel submissions to the 14th! That’s Friday, so you still have two days to put something together and send it our way. We love new voices so please submit even if you’re feeling shy!

Psst

Hey gaymers!
The time has certainly flown since our last update: there are only two weeks left before GaymerX Year Four begins! Since our last update we’ve been hard at work getting ready for the con, and we can't wait to share our best weekend yet with you
We’re also happy to announce that Microsoft will have presents for all of you who come to GaymerX. We can’t talk too much about the goodies yet- we don’t want to spoil the surprise- but we can tell you that we’re going to have a special surprise for Xbox users. You’ll find out more soon!!
Oh, and speaking of Microsoft: last week we announced our very first east coast event at the Microsoft Technology Center! We’re coming to NYC for two days of games, dev, and community building with all of you and it’s gonna be great. Submissions are open for panels and our Indie Space, and we’ll be revealing more information as we get closer to the event. We made a cute subdomain so you can keep up with everything as we announce it at http://east.gaymerx.com
That’s all from us for now. Don’t forget that if you have any question can reach out to us at anytime via [email protected]. See you soon at GaymerX Year Four!!!

Hey Gaymers!
We are now accepting Panel and
Speaker Submissions until July 15th!
Do you want to give a talk about your video game dev retrospective?
Have a skill you want to teach others like podcasting, branding or streaming?
Want to host a meetup for fellow artists/programmers/Dragon Age fans? Or maybe you have experience, but don't want to host the talk yourself.
GaymerX has you covered! We've just extended our programming submissions until July 15th!
We especially want to hear from POC! Our Diversity Liaison, Tanya DePass, has some words to say on this matter.
I’m putting on my Diversity Liaison hat before I start waving at you for a moment of your time. GaymerX Year 4 is coming up this fall and programming suggestions are open until July 15th. Convention content comes from the community. We want and need more POC on panels that are NOT just about diversity.
We know there’s a great community of game makers, podcasters, cosplayers, artists, musicians and more who should submit programming items for GX4! There’s more to our stories than being a marginalized identity within another marginalized identity.
We love games, all facets of making them. So bring your knowledge to GX4 and let’s make this year better for representation across all programming and events September 30 - October 2nd Thank you,
Tanya DePass GaymerX Diversity Liaison [email protected]
Now that you're fired up about speaking at GaymerX, let's get you some links!
