As part of our Gaming strand, Darklight presents a discussion contrasting the experiences of underground indie game development with working on high profile games.
Moderated by Patrick O’Neill from the Irish Film Board / Bord Scannan na hEireann, topics to be discussed include:
- The Do’s and Don’ts of Indie Gaming development
- Distribution for independent games - Do the same issues exist in the commercial game landscape, where thousands of titles are released each year and only a fraction become household names?
- Moving beyond the shareware origins of indie gaming, is it possible to make money from Indie Gaming? How to turn your passion project profitable and how do you make your game stand out from the rest?
Join Irish and international gaming experts and developers as they answer these questions and discuss the design, building and distribution of some of their projects.
Guests include:
Heidi Egger – Marino/Kaveleer (Elmo Loves ABC, Curios George At The Zoo)
Ollie Clarke (The Cat That Got The Milk- finalist at International Indie Game Festival ) https://www.uncommonassembly.com/2012/02/the-cat-that-got-the-milk/ https://ollieclarkesjournal.blogspot.ie/
