Advancing to the finals

Ladies and gentlemen, I am more than proud to announce that Bloom Studios will be advancing to the next round in the Imagine Cup competition! This round determines the winner of the US competition, and we're going to need all of the support we can get! Be sure to visit our website, which I know I've plugged on countless occasions... but just in case here it is again - http://bloomstudios.org - so go there and check us out! We've updated quite a bit of content!

One of the things I wanted to let everyone know is that we will be once again visiting a grade school to conduct and educational playtesting session. We will be spending an entire day with a 6th grade class of over 100 students! Yes... I'm nervous, but most of the nerves are excitement nerves! 6th graders are very smart, and they are the high cap of our audience. Our game should be in full Beta on April 4th, the day of the visit. That's just 2 short weeks away! Even crazier is our April 8th appearance for the finals!

At this point, I couldn't be happier with progression. The team has been working hard every day to get to where we are. We're going to keep pushing and keep working hard. We owe it to the environment and all our supporters to work our hardest and do our best!

Thanks again!
