So if anyone sees me at the wrestling- Ooh ... feel free to come up and give me a high five.
Jan OchoaHOST

Jan OchoaHOST
24:23
That could be great.

And then if you want new characters or you want a level editor so you can create your own levels with the game, those are stretch goals.
Brian ColinGUEST
42:27
Those are things that if you want an arcade game, Doc Mac at the Galloping Ghost in Chicago will create a game for you.
Brian ColinGUEST
42:37
So either it was a stretch goal or if you want to give a maximum contribution, he'll create an arcade version.
Brian ColinGUEST
42:44
So I want to let people know you've
Daniel ParkerHOST

got to make it happen.

Galloping Ghost is actually the biggest arcade, I want to say, maybe like museum, whatever you want to call it in America.
Daniel ParkerHOST
