0130 Matt Bozon of WayForward for Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution
Matt Bozon is a founding member of WayForward (https://channel3.gg/wayforward) , and along with his wife Erin the creator of the Shantae (https://channel3.gg/shantae-series) series of games. Matt joins us for what may be a most epic and personal three we will ever see as he takes us through the journey of the first three Shantae (https://channel3.gg/shantae-series) games: Shantae (https://channel3.gg/shantae) , Shantae: Risky Revolution (https://channel3.gg/shantae-advance-risky-revolution) (and through its over two decade delay), and Shantae: Risky's Revenge (https://channel3.gg/shantae-advance-risky-revolution) . Hear tales of the early inception of the series, to its sequel that was locked away until just this year, and the third game that began the trajectory to get Shantae on top of the culture where she is today.
Shantae Advance: Risky's Revolution (https://channel3.gg/shantae-advance-risky-revolution) is still available now on all modern platforms digitally, but is also available for physical pre-order until September 7, 2025 at Limited Run Games (https://limitedrungames.com/) . Quests (https://channel3.gg/shantae-advance-risky-revolution/quests) are up today for the game on Channel3.gg (https://channel3.gg/shantae-advance-risky-revolution/quests) as well.

About Channel3.gg: channel3.gg (https://channel3.gg/) is social networking built from the ground up for gamers. Sure you can do all the stuff like on the old social medias like post pictures, videos, comments and the like. Channel 3 is so much more than that though. It takes the social media experience and game-ifies it. Made a great post that someone likes (1-ups) or respawns? You earn XP experience points that level you up. New levels mean chances to win tickets for physical prizes, earn digital flair for your profile, and more. Additionally there are weekly events hosted by Channel 3 that let the community unwind and kick back with a little friendly competition. Sure, you want to win but it's more about hanging out and the vibes. These events are hosted on C3's Twitch Channel and also earn XP for participants. XP can also be earned for completing quests-questions related to games and being a gamer, challenges where you go forth and complete a task in a game, rating & reviewing games and systems, creating specifically themed lists of games and more.
