At the time of writing it doesn’t seem to be live yet, and they didn’t ask me to join the beta. But maybe this video will influence them somewhat. Even at 20 minutes, I feel like I …

Watch on YouTube I’ve finally committed to a date on the BattleMechas kickstarter. August 26th at 8AM MST I’ll be hitting launch live on YouTube. Lemme start this discussion by saying I love my Bambu. I think it’s a huge credit to Bambu that they setup this web service and then allowed you to not use it. I really don’t …
