Longtime POTIONS & PIXELS fans have watched Jan grow up! He’s been with us since day one, running events, building arcades, and developing games. Chances are you’ve lost to him in Smash Bros. or a board game! 🎮

He just turned 18! Join us in wishing him a happy birthday! 🎉

People see the games. They don’t always see this.

#MAGFest is a reminder of why we love this space so much.

So many brilliant indie devs, incredible conversations, and genuinely good humans building games they care about.

Feeling grateful, inspired, and very excited for what’s coming next. 💙🎮

Why a picture of T-molding on a shelf?

Because we were so busy building shelves over the holiday break that we completely forgot to take a photo of the amazing volunteers who showed up and put in serious work!

Huge thanks to Xavier, Michael, Kyle, Anthony,& Vinal. 💪🎮

[POTIONS & PIXELS @PotionsPixels]

Thank you Bobby Schweizer for donating a whole batch of classic consoles and controllers to our ArtCade project! 🎮✨

These will live inside our ArtCade units so the public can experience classic games exactly the way they were meant to be played!

[POTIONS & PIXELS @PotionsPixels]

Thank you Simon Norman, Nick, and Anthony Nguyen for volunteering to help set up the infrastructure that lets us monitor and control our ArtCade units remotely! 🔧🕹️

This work is a big deal — especially as we expand the ArtCade program in 2026. You all are amazing! 💛

[POTIONS & PIXELS @PotionsPixels]

Thank you Marcio Pinto for your generous donation to support the work of POTIONS & PIXELS! 🙏💙

[POTIONS & PIXELS @PotionsPixels]

Huge thanks to Brian King and Brandyn Osborne for organizing a fundraising event for POTIONS & PIXELS at the end of 2025! 💙
