It’s that time of year again! Retro Game and Computing Night 2017 is upon us. We are allowing all games and systems released pre-2000.
There will be all kinds of systems and games, SNES, SEGA, NES, GameBoy, Atari, as well as Amigas and other computers. We may even have a LAN setup for old school games like Duke Nukem 3D and Starcraft. We will also have the grill going. Feel free to bring your own systems and/or games.
Please come join us, play some games, meet new people and see our space. Also, remember your donations will help us continue to do events like these.
If you’d like a buy a shirt with this year’s Starfox-themed RGCN logo, we will have a few available for sale at the event. We’ll have limited quantities, so grab one early!

Tyler, Hunter, and I were a team for Ludum Dare 38 the weekend of April 21st, and we streamed the whole thing. We made a silly game about bees! You can play it here, and you can view the source here. Read More →
May 1st will be Makers Local 256’s Brews to Benefit night at Straight to Ale. In short, this means that every pint (16 oz) sold between 3pm and 10pm (7 hours) that day will earn the shop one US dollar ($1 USD).
But wait… there’s more! We’ll be having a geek-culture-themed trivia night in the Straight to Ale Speakeasy at 6pm! Grab some friends and show off how massive your stores of minutiae are about fun stuff like the Silmarillion and Clone Wars! Compete for prizes! Get a drink and enjoy yourself! (Or all of the above, if you’re a real go-getter!)
Every pint sold at Straight to Ale between 3pm and 10pm that afternoon will support Makers Local 256, so even if you can’t make the trivia game, you can still swing by and help out!
What you likely knew about the enthusiasts of makers local is that we drink a lot of soda. What you may not have known is that we recycle every can of tasty beverage we slam down, but it’s not always taken to the local recycling center. Some days are melt days.
