And it all focuses exclusively on independent game developers from around the world. Our mission is to promote independent artists in game creation by providing a space for them to showcase their work, the opportunity to reach an audience who craves to see it, and a forum to learn from each other.
Features: cosplay, game arcade, tournaments, LARPing, contests, presentations and panels, and more!
Please note that there are different passes available for sale – general admission and industry. Check the Gameacon website for more details and to purchase passes.
Celebrating Gaming, Game Developers, and Gamers of all kinds
Gameacon celebrates the artistry of games and game creation. That’s what our name stands for – The Game Arts Conference. If you love video games, board games, esports, LARPing or the geek culture that surrounds it, then you will love Gameacon.
About the Event:
Hey all! Welcome to the 1st Wingbot Super Smash Bros. Tournament ever! To celebrate the coming of the new Ultimate game coming out on December 7th, we are working alongside Canal Street Market to host a casual tournament. All are welcome as long as you abide by the rules listed further below. The version of SSB will be for the Wii U. Anyone who will not be participating may come to cheer for their friends or enjoy the show. If the tournament ends early, free play will be allowed until the end of the day. Anytime during the day, mention “SSB” at our shop (located in the same location) will net you 15% anything in-store just for that day. The discount ends at 7 PM that day and will only be allowed during that specific day.
A snack station will be set up with Japanese snacks and drinks such as Ramune, Pocari Sweat, Sapporo Juices for drinks and Pocky, Gummy Choco, Kit-Kats, and Dorayaki to name a few. They will be available for purchase anytime during the event.
Prizes are separated to Grand Prize, 2nd Place, and 3rd Place. They consist of:
Grand Prize: $100 Amazon Gift Card + Selection of Gifts from the Wingbot Shop
2nd Prize: $50 Amazon Gift Card + Selection of Gifts from the Wingbot Shop
3rd Prize: $10 Amazon Gift Card + Selection of Gifts from the Wingbot Shop
Rule Set:
The game will be set up as the first game: 6 minutes, 4 players free for all. Matches beyond the first will be 1v1, 3 stock matches. Best out of 3. All characters can be used except for mii fighters and custom characters. Please bring your own controller. The tournament will begin around 1 to 2 PM. The total amount of participants will be capped at 32 for just this event. Player(s) will have between 5 to 10 minutes to show up, and if they fail to do so without getting prior TO consent to be late, will result in a loss of the first match. 5 to 10 more minutes without showing up results in a loss of the entire set. More in-depth rules are below. Any other questions, please email us at wingbotinc@gmail.com.
3 stock for 1v1 games.
6 minutes for 4 player, free for all games.
Items are turned to off and none.
Pause is disabled.*
Stalling is banned.
If time runs out, the winner is determined by remaining stock, and then by ending damage percentage.
If both stock and percentage are identical, or a game ends with both players being KO’d simultaneously, then a tiebreaker is played. A tiebreaker is a 1 stock, 3-minute match with the same characters and the same stage.
Custom characters/mii fighters are not allowed.
Players are expected to bring their own controller and be prepared for every tournament set (often known as BYOC; Bring Your Own Controller), though tournaments may occasionally have a few controllers that players can borrow.
If pausing is left on, and a player pauses, the pausing player generally must forfeit their current stock immediately; some tournaments only require players to forfeit upon their opponent’s request, while other rulesets force any pausing player to forfeit regardless of the opponent’s request. There are a few tournaments, however, where a TO must resolve the situation in the following way. Unpausing before a TO arrives and without the opposing player’s consent typically results in a loss of stock for the unpaused.
If the situation is neutral, the match is resumed with no further action once all players are ready.
If the player who paused is at a disadvantage, once the game resumes they are to be placed either on the edge of the stage or in an opponent’s grab if they were being grabbed.
If the player who paused is in a “death situation”, their current stock is forfeited immediately.
Players who use wireless controllers are responsible for turning off and de-syncing their controllers to prevent interference. Some tournaments ban wireless controllers entirely to avoid this problem.
Players are responsible for their own controls and name tag. Any malfunctions (including battery power) is the player’s responsibility. Both sides must agree to restart a match because of such a problem.
No substitutions are allowed for singles or doubles.
DQ Rule: Arriving too late for a match will result in a DQ. Player(s) will usually have between 5 to 10 minutes to show up, and if they fail to do so without getting prior TO consent to be late, will result in a loss of the first match. 5 to 10 more minutes without showing up results in a loss of the entire set. For doubles, both players on a team need to be present in order to play.
The tournament organizer has the right to save/record any tournament match if possible and has the right to upload said match.
