IGDA Manila Chapter Q3 2006 report
Minutes of the Meeting
Seperate Game Development Industry Organization discussion
- We have consulted experienced people regarding setting up the new org, and we're pushing thru with the creation of the org, target is end of this year
- Ranulf of Matahari Studios has provided draft goals and bylaws to be reviewed by potential member companies
- This org will hopefully be funded by game development companies here and by grants with the help of government
- This org will in turn help fund IGDA Manila activities as well, so that there would be no problems not having a legal entity
- Supported activities would include GDC, AGDS and UGG
Asian Game Developer Summit 2006
- Gaby of Flipside is in charge of coordinating speakers and delegates from PH
- We will try to go as a PH delegation so that organizing the trip can be easier and the expenses can be lowered down
- We hope to introduce more PH people to the event, we hope we can host the event in PH by next year
UGotGame and other events this year and next year
- UGG will have an exhibition type environment more than competition, and it will be now limited to just student category
- 10 game dev slots and 4 mod slots are allocated, this might change due to the number of entries
- Matahari Studios will be a primary sponsor, and other game development companies might sponsor as well, depending on the package
Chapter Get together and sponsorship
- David formerly of Pixelstream will be organizing a Chapter Night get together, Luna of Anino will be coordinating for the venue
- Most likely in Boni this August or September
- We plan to present post mortems about Anino's Timothy and Titus and Ladyluck's Terrawars:NY
- In this event, we would be more of a community night rather than a formal meeting
Thanks,
Ranulf
