Got Your Game On? AnimeFest 2005 wants you!

With over 18,000 square feet devoted to gaming, AnimeFest 2005 will be the place to go for gaming in North Texas.

THIS YEAR, WE WILL HAVE:

RPG:

  • D&D; D&D all nighter
  • BESM OGL; BESM d20
  • Star Wars (d20); Star Trek; GURPS Horror; Buffy
  • D&D Saturday night 'all nighter' wants you to bring your own Level 14 characters.

LARP:

  • Cthulu LARP - Friday night - "The Escape"
  • They said the mission would be simple. Get in, get out. Then things went south. Now you're awake, and pain stabs your brain like ice picks. You hear the guards outside. You know you have to ESCAPE.

  • Anime LARP - Saturday night - "SHOUNEN ACTION NIGHT!"
  • At Shirokin Gakuen High School, being in a school club is not just encouraged, but required. However, the school has a reputation as being a haven for thugs, delinquents, misfits, and other disreputable types, and funding is constantly a problem. As a result, the stronger clubs have survived, having overpowered and consumed the weaker clubs, until only three clubs remain.

    This year, there is only funding for two clubs.

    To prevent an all out war from erupting, a competition has been announced with the clubs competing in five events for points. The clubs will compete in tests of courage, of skill, of strength, of endurance, and of spirit, in a no-holds-barred free-for-all.

    Winning is everything in Shounen Action Night! Cause remember: Second place is just a nice way of saying FIRST LOSER!!!

    Pre-registration is available at

MAKOTO

Facing one of the six foot tall opponents (target towers), you see the other two opponents at either side in your peripheral vision. You are in a competition of three against one! Each tower has ten targets, any one of these thirty targets could be the one to randomly activate. You never know which one of the computerized opponents will draw your action!

A gong sounds the start of your session. An explosion of light and sound draws your attention to the active opponent. As you turn toward its direction your mind searches for the location of the lighted target on the tower. With cat-like reflexes, you strike the target with the staff in your hands. A second tone confirms you scoring a point before the target darkened. Another explosion of light and sound causes you to lunge across the arena bending to strike the lower target. As quickly as you strike one target another one activates. Your opponent, Makoto, is pacing you!

You are relentlessly drawn in to focusing continuously on finding and striking the targets to the exclusion of all other thoughts. Your movements are a dance, your breathing is rhythmic as you slip into an automatic flow state. You move, lunging, stretching, bending, twisting, and burning calories rapidly. Your mind is clear and calm, your spirit is energized. You feel transported beyond time and space...then you remember how your "friend" ate all your Pocky. You attack the towers with a renewed frenzy!

Makoto....it’s not just a game....it’s Catharsis!

As you can see, we're going to have a strong gaming program this year!!

Gaming Mascot

The entries are in and they are fantastic. Keep an eye out for our new gaming mascot.
