    Hey guys, so the unity roadshow is coming to my city on may 2nd, and I was lucky enough to snipe a few tickets on day one (before they quickly ran out) and I'm hyped to be going!

    So... who else is gonna show? Who is presenting? And of course - will there be some cool unity swag gear I can snatch if I show up early enough? Haha.

    Oh another thing - they say bring a pc with windows 8 or 8.1 and visual studio... are those really required or can I get by on windows 7 with monodevelop? Not that I'm particularly fond of monodevelop but do I absolutely require visual studio instead? Plus I hate frigging win 8 and 8.1... the interface changes put me into slow mode.

    Heres a link:

    So the roadshow went pretty good! I published my old android game "asteroid buster" to windows phone store, and Microsoft picked up the bill, and gave me a free windows phone as well! @Mike Geig did a great job doing the first track and cracked me up a few good times, and a bunch of the local teams seemed to have had somebody there.

    I had fun, hope to see you unity guys doing more stuff like this in Columbus soon! Thanks to the hosts and food bringers at microsoft/unity, haha.
