Here’s a better shot of the campers!
Brad Montague (Creator of the Kid President show) invited me to talk to 200 kids at Go Camp up in Tennessee. These kids live in the middle of nowhere… but are totally inspired and super gifted. It was an amazing time!
Shortly after we won the Facebook award, Amazon emailed us and asked us to make Hunger Crunch for a top secret project they were working on. A couple weeks ago, they launched “Amazon Underground”. And here’s the cool part… for every minute the game is played…Amazon sends us money to feed orphaned kids around the world. Now we just need 20 million people to play :)!
It’s been a while since I posted. Sorry ‘bout that. So… at the end of March, we won Facebook’s “Social Good App of the Year!” It was a total surprise and we celebrated with pizza and cake as Dodd hung out with the Facebook people (on stage) at Facebook’s F8 conference. Felt pretty great!
Showing the Hunger Crunch comic to a room packed with kids. One of the fun parts of my job.
Big Day #2
Yesterday, we released Hunger Crunch for Android. I don’t actually own an Android device…so please imagine this iPhone 6 as such. Nice work, Rob!
Just got back from Rwanda and Ethiopia. The orphaned kids at our partner homes were so awesome…and they loved Hunger Crunch. (doesn’t hurt that this was most likely the first game they’d ever seen). Now, we just need to get Hunger Crunch known here in the States and feed some kiddos!
Just got back from Ethiopia. Great seeing the Rice Bowls kids there! Also, enjoyed the food there! Especially African tea. This is a snap I took of Kediga making tea for everyone!
Meet Wefiends. The game developers we worked with to establish the game play of Hunger Crunch (the online version). Without any question, they’re 3 of the most talented people I’ve ever met. And Nick (far right) makes a mean burger!
Last night, we attended the largest Hunger Crunch party ever! We’re talk'n hundreds of Georgia kids (K-5th grade).
Olaf’s a frequent “actor” in many of their skits. And, while he’s normally a pretty chill guy…things got heated up between him and Mostacho.
Here’s a clip…
#hungercrunch letter pressed beasty(s) are in! hats off to artsyomni for engineering this lovely little guy!
My friend and coworker @artsyomni designed all the collectibles for Hunger Crunch. Aren’t they little gems?!
Mostacho (Maniacal Master of Mayhem)
You can try your luck against him in Level 8 of our new game! If you dare. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hunger-crunch/id860000093?mt=8
Mostacho (Maniacal Master of Mayhem) showed up at our house tonight. Turns out…he plays the piano! Who knew!
Another old photo of the beginnings of the HC back story. (working it all out again, with Dodd)
