Hey guys, sorry about the lack of new badges lately! I was busy all day Friday packing up my desk to move to the NEW KONGREGATE OFFICE!!
Whoa, so much space! Here’s our old office after it was packed away:
The final sunset in the view from my desk on the last day in the old office:
We’re moving because we’ve grown and expanded so much that our old office just couldn’t fit everyone. So thanks for supporting us for all these years, guys! Working at Kongregate is a dream job for us, and nothing would be possible without the players — especially the players who forgive lapses in new badges.

Is it still going to be in San Francisco? or moving to Portland? or other Kong HQ places…

Still in San Francisco — just a few blocks away!

What about the K on the wall, you aren’t leaving it behind, right? ;-;
New office looks really nice though, cool to see Kong expanding and such.

Does that mean another badge today?

Kongratulations Kongregate!

Sadly, yes, it is being left behind. We had to leave behind another painted K at our older office, too. They were both painted by [Case](http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/ivory), so maybe he can paint us a third one in the new office!

It’s Sunday! If by “another badge” you mean “Greg playing [Hearthstone](http://us.battle.net/hearthstone/en/),” then yes, there will be another badge today.

Hopefully Kongregate becomes huge enough to have other offices elsewhere~

Done. :3

Is that game ever going to be not beta? Still waiting for it to become not beta before I start.

We have a smaller office in Portland and a few scattered employees who work from home, if that counts! San Francisco is our main headquarters, though.

They’re not wiping progress after the beta, though. And aside from a few visual glitches during matches (yay floating cards), it’s pretty polished. Man, you guys should DEFINITELY go play Hearthstone instead of anything on Kongregate, that’s for sure!

I demand pictures of the space when everyone’s moved in _ **AND** _ the obligatory staff group photos.

So any possibilities of erecting a statue of Puff Catty in all its puffy cat glory in the dead center of the new office to celebrate the change?

I think your offices would look super cool with a giant CROW STATUE in the middle.
It will show your clients that you are a classy business for classy people such as themselves

I took a picture from my desk, but it didn’t come out very well:
Which made me feel like this:
But I walked up to the window and got a better picture of the view from the window:
