8DAYS
is a frenetic local versus action game in which you have the mission to
bring peace to the world.
There is an evil power conspiring in the shadows against people's
freedom. Choose your hero from a variety of funny characters and travel
through multiple locations around the world. You are bounded by duty to
bring peace to the world and unmask the evil masterplan. As usual with
more violence!

As hóPLAY finalist developer, Santa Clara Games had the chance to
explain HassleHeart in the Big Indie
Pitch
to Steel Media journalists. What an intense and very funny experience!

We came to play so, get ready to pitch![/caption]
We were so happy and so surprised words couldn't get out of our
mouths! It's been a wonderful moment! It gives us so much energy and
fuel to keep making games that we are looking forward to December
23^rd^ to launch HassleHeart's Final Version and start working in

We were happy to get to gamelab, we didn't know there was a 2 hours
waiting line to enter :([/caption]
On June 25 we assisted to Barcelona to
Gamelab. We had three intense days of
conferences, networking and conversations with friends and other indie
developers from Spain. And, as you will see by the pictures, we
had chance to talk about HassleHeart with everybody ;)

First day, first encounter, Mr. Shuhei Yoshida. Great start![/caption]
We met Mr. Shuhei Yoshida(@yosp)
(President of Sony's Worldwide
Studios) and chat about indie developers like us and the
possibility to bring HassleHeart to PSVita (fingers crossed!).
Mr. Keiji Inafune got his own copy of the game too and he seemed to
like the idea of a robot tearing apart humans hearts (maybe we gave him
ideas for Mighty N.9, who knows...).
Tim Schafer's panel Dreams, machines and
inspiration from Gamelab
Conference on Vimeo.
We have to apologize withTim Schafer@TimOfLegend whom
we boarded after his panel (if you read this, sorry Tim, we hope you
will like the game) in order to give him a copy of the game.
We also met the adorable and
kindKim
Swift (@K2theSwift) from
Amazon Games Studio and had the opportunity to chat with
Richard
Lemarchand (@rich_lem) who
as very nice with us.

We met Keiji Inafune just before his panel and gave him a HassleHeart
copy[/caption]
They all got their own HassleHeart copy with a bonus track, a copy
of Return to Castle Urgullas well!
We specially enjoyed Neil McFarland's
@parishair panel from UsTwo Games
about Monument Valley's development. Their vision about
development is similar than ours, and we liked the way they focus on
bringing a good experience to the gamers and be honest with them.

Rami was super kind and shared with us some tricks about indie
development[/caption]
On the second day we had the pleasure of lunch with Rami
Ismail (@tha_rami) from
Vlambeershare ideas and concerns about indie development. He is an
awesome and great guy.
We feel so sorry we couldn't stay to Rami's inspiring panel, but we ran
late to take the airplane back home :,(. Next time, we will try to have
more light schedule.
