This is an issue we're running into that isn't on the rules this SAGE but we figure to make our stance clear. We do not support AI Generated assets in any games that comes to SAGE. (Visual and Audio) and if you are caught using it. We will pull it off the expo until it's removed.
This year's theme for RAGE 2024 is SONIC MANIA 2! Create the worst sequel to this community's favorite 2D Sonic game! You got two weeks this year.

The SAGE 2021 Trailer is now out for regular viewing! Thank you to all the submitters who sent footage of their projects to be shown in this video. With that out of the way, we should update on what's happening with the Expo!
As predicted, the SAGE site is down! We apologize for that and are working hard to get it back up, but in the meantime, if you've got an alternative download for your booth, link it below!
Let's make this the backup thread!!
We're still hard at work with our ISP trying to get the site up and stable! For the record, even with the issues, we've had 3.5 million hits in the first 16 hours! Obviously, everything that we had setup ahead of time wasn't quite enough, we ask for your continued patience!
And with that we've reached the deadline for the
#SAGE23
Trailer! The form has closed and we are sending confirmation emails to the last submitters. If you haven't gotten one by tomorrow, please reach us out! Until the trailer, Enjoy the new Artwork! Credits below.
As SAGE 20th has drawn to a close, we want to give a shoutout to everyone who made this year's event possible.

#SAGE23
opens in A DAY! As a reminder. The pre-show will start at August 31st 7pm PDT! To all the participants wondering. We will approve your showcase page in exactly 24 hours once we update the SAGExpo website.
Did you know that indie games are also welcome in the event?
Despite being an event centered around fan-games, 1/3 of last year's submissions were indie titles.
Tag an indie project in the comments and let them know!

Submissions in 12 HOURS! Deadline: August 21st 11:59pm PDT. But with that out of the way, We have some announcements! Let's start with sharing all the streamers who will be streaming on the SAGE '23 Schedule!
And just like that, SAGE 2018 has come to a close. We want to thank everyone who submitted games, streamed, got the word out, and most importantly of all, helped donate to our charity for Child's Play. This year we raised over $1,100! You guys are amazing!!
"You've unlocked SAGE Zone!"
A lot of you have been asking, and yes, SAGE 2024 is still happening! More info will be given very soon, but have a taste for what's to come.
#SAGE2024
THE MEDIA KIT IS OUUUUT! All logos and downloads are ready to be remixed and used as you please!
We have 1 more month until submissions close! Make sure you look at the guidelines and pretty up your booths!

Daisuke speaking~
With the fears of viruses, I can confirm that no game at SAGE 2023 has malware attached to it.
The "Wacatac" flag tends to trigger false positives due to how Clickteam Fusion games are exported. All SAGE games are safe to download.
We're aware the site is experiencing issues. Over 600gb worth of games were downloaded in the first 30 minutes of the site launching. Needless to say, things are a little bogged down at the moment. We're doing what we can to get things back up 100% and appreciate your patience.
A month late, but here's the closing

This wasn't scheduled but we've updated our 2 year old Do & Don't Trailer Submission Video and it should be listed in the Guidelines & Deadlines page in the SFGHQ Forums. But we'll upload it here for those who wish to watch it before submitting!
Our entry and trailer guidelines for SAGE 2021 have been released! You can read our updated guidelines over at:

Hey
@antdude92
! We loved your video on Sonic fan games and appreciate the shout-out! If you ever want to stream during SAGE week, our DMs are open. We'd love to have you!!
If you haven't watched AntDude's awesome video yet, check it out!
Check it! Twice Showcased title "Havoc Fox" has a Kickstarter open and is 5k away from being funded! We'd highly recommend trying out their newest demo! there's only a week left!
For the first time ever,
@Somecallmejon
is invading SAGE! Join him on Friday and Saturday, 10AM to Noon CDT as he makes his way through SAGE's best offerings!
That's it! Thank you so much to everyone who submitted to SAGE 2020! Booths will go live on September 5th at 12:00am CDT!
We wanted this to be the biggest SAGE ever and you guys delivered! With over 200 ENTRIES (an Earth shattering record!,) we've got our work cut out for us!
Today is the last day of the SAGE week and if you're feeling a bit blue about it (or you're one of those salty folks that didn't get enough Sonic in the 83 submissions this year,) we've got a treat for you! It's the Sonic Project Hero Demo!
We've got a backup site live for SAGE! This particular backup also has a special feature that offers a second link to an external download if one is availawh. Hopefully this will make downloading games a bit easier!
With the closing stream now over,
#SAGE23
has officially reached it's end! With over 200 games, 8 days worth of streams. The curtain calls near. But that doesn't mean the festivities are over. Here's the credits video!
Wishing
@RubyEclipse
all the best in his future at SEGA. Give us a holler if you ever wanna sit down during SAGE week, we'd love to have you!
...the chiken legs are on us.😉
And it's all out! The Full Trailer... AND VOL. 1/2! We've decided that we would split the trailers in half for those who wish to look back at parts of the trailer with more ease.
- VOL. 1
- VOL. 2
With 9 Days to go, Dono's Tale's Kickstarter needs your help! This game recently showed up for SAGE this year, there's a demo you can check out if you are interested and if you liked what you played, you can back the kickstarter!
This year's SAGE has featured a great deal of projects with original compositions and great remixes! It'd be a crime not to spotlight any of the music from these projects, so we've gathered some soundtrack releases so you can jam out to some cool music!
SAGE 2021 TRAILER. JULY 30TH 5PM PDT. BE THERE.
IF YOU WANT TO CATCH A EARLY WATCH OF THE TRAILER AT JULY 30TH 4:45PM PDT, HOP ON OVER TO OUR DISCORD AT:
