As in previous years, The SEGA Lounge is associating with Team RadioSEGA and taking part in one of the most special annual events in the gaming community: GameBlast, in aid of SpecialEffect.
If you don't know about SpecialEffect, our season 6 episode is still pretty much up-to-date in terms of explaining the mission and goals of this amazing charity, which helps people with disabilities enjoy video games.
GameBlast, on the other hand, is one of SpecialEffect's biggest events of the year, and one when the whole gaming community joins together in an effort to raise money for the charity by, among other things, streaming games.
I (KC) have been taking part in GameBlast on a personal level, but this time we're using the whole of The SEGA Lounge might to try and raise money for this incredible charity and the wonderful people they help. That means we're using the podcast and our Twitch channel to make a push for donations as part of GameBlast24, in association with other wonderful streamers and radio show hosts of Team RadioSEGA.
Here's our schedule for GameBlast24:
- Thursday, February 22nd @ 8 pm GMT: Premiere of Season 8 on RadioSEGA (https://radiosega.net)
- Thursday, February 22nd @ 9:30 pm GMT: Part 7 of our Shenmue playthrough on Twitch/YouTube (https://twitch.tv/thesegalounge | https://youtube.com/@thesegalounge)
