GDC Austin Unveils Indie Summit

by Deborah M. Fike · in General Discussion · 05/20/2009 (9:51 am) · 3 replies

I thought our community might be interested in this:

As the GDC Austin Indie Games Summit call for submissions page explains, organizers are looking for the following topics, spanning both smaller one and two-person indies and somewhat larger independent console and PC game developers:


  • Indie Business: "How to make money, manage teams, and run a company without going insane."
  • Promotion & Marketing: "How to get noticed when the "Marketing Department" = you."
  • Design and Philosophy: "Deep dive into design techniques, for example: constraints, rapid prototyping, tools."
  • Case Studies and Postmortems: "Inspirational talks that demonstrate what worked, what didn’t, what surprised you and made you wiser."

For more info, go to the GDC Indie Summit Submission page.

Hmmmm... I feel the need to talk to a bunch of people I don't know about things they think they can do better than I can... ;) Thanks for the heads-up!
