Second Saito earth not stepping on diary

I can’t read Japanese at all. Not more then a few words anyway. But every now and then I come across a site line this one talking about Panty Explosion! We’ve been getting a lot of hits from this site lately, so I thought it was time to share it with the rest of you. Babelfish absolutly mangles the text, but it seems like the author likes the game well enough. Here’s a few out of context quotes that to me sound pretty good:

” It is something which is good from the other side of the sea and discovers the reading muscle to here”

“The guy gin COOL!”

Sounds good to me! Would any of our Japanese speaking visitors (or the author of this site) care to clue me in? I’m especially interested in the part that contains three links to this image.

The rest of the site is pretty cool, with information on tons of neat looking RPG products. Those are RPGs, right?

ENnie Awards

Hi. Did you know that Atarashi Games is eligible for the Best Publisher ENnie award this year? And you can nominate us! Does this sound like I’m asking you to nominate us? I am! Seriously, Atarashi Games has released both Panty Explosion and Classroom Deathmatch this year. That’s two kick ass games in 8 months! I know you love those games. You know you love those games. Hike on over to the Forge and find out how you can nominate us! Will we win? Of course not. But the exposure will be great, and it will help us sell more books. Which will mean that Matt and I will both have a bit more money and we can afford to work on Yaoi Explosion, The Year We All Died and some other games even more.

Panty Explosion t-shirts now available!

The Panty Explosion and Classroom Deathmatch t-shirts are now available! We are very happy to offer 2 different Panty Explosion shirts in a variety of colors. We are also offering different Classroom Deathmatch shirts, each featuring one of the students from the book’s cover!

Each shirt is available for $20 at the Atarashi Shirt Store!

The shirt store is set up through a company called Spreadshirt, and is separate from our regular online store. I’m looking into how to fix this, but for now we’ll be operating one store for our shirts and one for our books and PDFs.

You can fin the links to both stores on the bar to your right.
