What Makes Us Different:

Gameacon is the only con of its kind specifically about and for indie devs and their fans. There may be areas in larger cons for indies, but this is a whole con devoted to it. Gameacon combines industry specific networking, education and peer review with fan exposure and testing. It is grass roots, not corporate. These are people in the trenches together so creating a bonding and synergy that just doesn't exist in the other cons.

 

Offered Opportunities:

Networking; Public Testing; Public Exposure; Education; Entertainment; Fun; National Level Tournament Play; Peer Recognition.
