Boston area Indies PAX Panel
January 22nd, 2010 by Macguffin
Going to put together a state-of-the-game post soon, but in the meantime – the panel I submitted to PAX was accepted! Here are the details:
Indies Will Shoot You In The Knees – Why We Don’t Play Fair
Everyone is talking about Indie games — titles like World of Goo, Braid, and AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! — A Reckless Disregard for Gravity are making press and making money. But they’re fighting against games with $200 million dollar budgets and 100+ person dev teams. How do Indies compete? Three Boston-based Indie developers will check their water-guns at the door and tell you why and how Indie games are kicking more ass, taking more names, and chewing more bubblegum than their AAA rivals. You will hear from the Ichiro Lambe (IGF Finalist Dejobaan Games, Aaaaa!), Scott Macmillan (Macguffin Games, All Heroes Die) and ex-Bungie AI wizard Damián Isla, founder of the new indie Moonshot Games. The panel will be moderated by Eitan Glinert, founder of Fire Hose Games.
Right now we’re scheduled for Friday March 26th from 8-9pm, in the Naga Theatre. Hope to see you there!
