It was heartbreaking for everyone working on BitSummit to cancel the show after months of preparation. We\u2019ve revived it through Gaiden, but one of the elements that make BitSummit shine is the sense of community it inspires year after year.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new format brings opportunities to introduce more community elements to the BitSummit formula. In addition to Discord, we\u2019re calling on our roster of former BitSummit mascots to help usher us into this BitSummit-online-only world!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspired by Japanese traditions of teamwork, we\u2019ve grouped the devs into 5 teams helmed by BitSummit mascots. With everyone connecting virtually for Gaiden, we hope this will establish a greater sense of community among devs and fans while making it easier for everyone to find the games on Discord!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a variety of activities planned for the teams during BitSummit Gaiden. Join us on Discord and support your favorite team!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020-30x30.png 30w, https:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/bitsummit.org\/debug\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Badge_BitRobots2020.png 1240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong>BitRobots<\/strong> &#8211; Led by our original mascot, BitKing, the BitRobots were created by Dr. Yamamu in his secret base underneath Daimonjiyama.
