Last week, @SelectFLA President and CEO Matt Swanson met with Toshio Kii, Chief Executive Director of @JETROUSA Atlanta, to further develop partnerships in workforce training and across key industries including advanced manufacturing and semiconductor-related activity.
Japan and Florida share a longstanding economic relationship, strengthened by Memorandums of Cooperation and Understanding, and Sister State agreements that have fostered innovation, talent development and business growth.

After doing those two interviews, @y_shiokawa asked me if he could also talk about his other game at @Fahrenheit_213 even though it wasn't at PAX called TSURUGIHIME. I said of course. TSURUGIHIME is a side-scrolling action rpg. youtube.com/shorts/2-eTD6DIN…

After doing the Lunar Pulse interview I talked with @y_shiokawa a bit about his work on two of my favorite games Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2 youtube.com/shorts/HvoxhyeF-…

The 4th and final game I tried out of the 12 games at the Made in Japan booth was Lunar Pulse by @Fahrenheit_213 and I got to talk with @y_shiokawa Lunar Pulse is a single player rogue-like card game where you experience souls-like tension. youtube.com/shorts/E0VjjF1-n…

The 3rd Made in Japan booth game I tackled was A Tiny Wander by @doukutsupenguin. It felt like it had some Death Stranding vibes in this cozy mystery and exploration adventure game. youtube.com/shorts/RZz9gbVwG…

The second Made in Japan booth game I tackled was Step Theater by @p_p_p_p_p. It's a story based rhythm title where you are bringing a movie stage to life. The better you perform, the more the film comes together in real time. youtube.com/shorts/KQJWUEDKf…

The Made in Japan booth by @JETRO_info brought 12 curated games and made a digital collection with hundreds of games. I first demoed @lidlocks game Finding Polka which @pr_hound originally put on my radar. It's a cozy 2d hand drawn where's waldo type game. youtube.com/shorts/_hRY2e4PN…
