McLeodGaming at Apex
Beggining with Apex 2013, support for non-profit, indie developer companies was started. McLeodGaming was among the developers that was invited to the event to present the newest version of its fangame based on the SSB games called Super Smash Flash 2 who is presented in the format of a demo for attendants to play it before its public release, with live-streams of live gameplay on MG's Twitch account so people who couldn't assist to the event could have a sneak of the new version. Raffles and prize-giving events were also hosted at the MG booth. McLeodGaming returned at Apex 2014, to showcase SSF2 demo v0.9b. Then again at Apex 2015, this time to showcase the final playable demo version of SSF2, SSF2 Beta.
