GameCafé

"Indie/Alternate/Art Games"

The GameCafé concept is a fresh spin on the old roundtable discussion format, with a greater emphasis on intimate interactions in a more casual setting. For our next GameCafé we will focus on the emergence and evolution of indie/alternate/art games from three different perspectives:

  1. Game design, aesthetics and culture
  2. Business models and funding challenges
  3. Production/platform tips and tricks

Each participant will have the opportunity to explore and discuss all three topics, as well as participate in a group-wide "debrief" at the end.

 

Dinner

For those who want to enjoy some yummy tapas style food, please arrive early at 6:00pm. Note, this is optional and at your own personal expense. If you only want to participate in the GameCafé discussion portion, please arrive no later than 7:30pm.

 

RSVP

Please RSVP to montreal@igda.org your intention to attend this GameCafé. Note, you must be an IGDA member in good standing to attend or become one prior to attending. Contact us if you are uncertain of your membership status.

Note: Space is limited to the first 50 members who reserve.
