Well here it is! Our first video production! Join me (Regina AKA DocLizz) on the show floor at PAX Prime. In this segment, we talk to game developers Steve and Jessica Hoogendek about their adventure/ puzzle game, Lilly Looking Through. I fell in love with Lily as soon as I saw her and even more so as I talked to Steve and Jessica.
Check out the preview video at the Geeta Games website and the demo on Steam! If you’ve had a chance to play, or really want to from seeing the video, let us know in the comments!
Stay tuned for more con videos and subscribe to our brand new YouTube Channel!
Until next time, Game on!

Thank you for sharing a cool girl game Regina. The games storyline sounds interesting. I don't often see games for girls that look like they are not covered in pink and teaching you about make-up or shopping. Thank you for sharing this game. Also I like the video interview.
Thanks, Jen! As soon as I saw Lily I had all the same thoughts you have here. It's great to see a lead female character in a kid friendly game. The focus on puzzle solving is also great for kids as well since it focuses on helping develop critical thinking skills.
