Manhattan Meetup: Cruel 2 B Kind

September 18, 2006 2:39 PM

This weekend is an alternative gaming festival in Manhattan, featuring innovative/experimental games played in public- like this body-activated giant game of Space Invaders played against the exterior of NYU Bobst library. Ms Phred and I will be playing cruel 2 be kind on Saturday-any NYC mefites interested? (n.b.: I am not affiliated in any way with the festival, except as a game participant--just thought it might be more fun than drinks.)

We can identify ourselves at the closing ceremony in Central Park. Debated putting this in the blue because there are so many cool games. But it's been boingboinged, so maybe many of us have seen it.

I'm not totally sure how to feel about this. Pray tell, will there be glitter?

I'm gone this weekend, otherwise I think I would've been up for it.

It'll be a rave on stilts, shownomercy.

I'd love to be there, but I'll almost certainly need to be somewhere else that weekend. :/ Alas. I heard about it last week and was hoping to make it, but plans have changed.

I have to be in the city for a wedding this weekend... I'll have to look over my schedule...
