T2Ders at IGC?
by Matthew Langley · in Torque Game Builder · 08/22/2005 (10:12 am) · 33 replies
So who else in the Torque 2D community is going to the IGC?
Plan on having any games to show off? General place to chat about this :) Personally I'm very excited to see what Torque 2Ders bring to the table at IGC!
I'll definately be there (along with my team, hopefully some T2D demos and a Torque 3D demo game).

Since I am unable to go, i wonder if anyone is going to cover the event (@gg or otherwise). Anybody plan on blogging it? It is beyond my means to travel across the US, but if anyone was keeping us up to date as it happens, it would be the sort of next best thing to being there.

I was actually just in eugene last week, beautiful place, and has an art scene in the top 10 of the nation.

I have a group of game developers I meet with every wed. So tomorrow if I can convince some of them to go, i'll be going i think. I was actually just in eugene last week, beautiful place, and has an art scene in the top 10 of the nation.

@matt, thats good to hear. I'm sure rushing to post about a cool talk you just went to is probably far from most peoples minds while at IGC, but it would be nice to hear from the "movers and shakers" in the t2d community who have a chance to attend. I'm broke and stuck on the east coast :) maybe next year

I'll try and do a T2D recap for everyone here thats not able to go (maybe even sneak in updates each night)... I'll bring my camera (not sure if they restrict that?) and take pictures and short clips if I can :)

I'd love to go, but I already spent alot of money going out-of-town to a U2 concert (@ Toronto, which was insane btw). Might have to wait until next year... I'm hoping there will be lots of coverage of the event here at GG so those of us who couldn't make it have an idea of what one of those conferences are like. :)

Do any of the sessions get released on DVD or in transcript format? that would be interesting for those that cannot swing the travel.

Not going to make it this year, but I am going to be there in spirit, and am taking some time off my day job to hole up and seriously work on my game :-)Do any of the sessions get released on DVD or in transcript format? that would be interesting for those that cannot swing the travel.

I can't afford it this year. Another thing is I have switched to full time TSE projects for now. But still want to keep an eye on T2d. The cash I have saved is going towards Constructor. But it's a bummer to miss out on meeting so many cool people and stuff.

Me and my artist friend was really wanting to go, though! One of the cool toys I helped a group develop will be demo'd there, and I also wanted to give folks a hands-on shot at my latest T2D game too.
Oh well, I too shall be there in spirit and can't wait to see what is revealed there, especially related to T2D.

Well, I had planned on going, but unfortunately a lot has come up lately in my life and I'm not going to be able to attend it. It's more of a money issue with me right now.Me and my artist friend was really wanting to go, though!

I don't have anything I feel is worth showing off yet, but I'm really looking forward to seeing what others have, learning a lot, and getting some real inspiration to push forward with my projects.

I got my tickets to IGC and TBC last week and my airline and hotel reservations over the weekend.I don't have anything I feel is worth showing off yet, but I'm really looking forward to seeing what others have, learning a lot, and getting some real inspiration to push forward with my projects.
