Boston Indies is back with our first in-person event since 2020!
It's been a while, so let's catch up with some of our favorite local indies with a little panel. What's everyone working on? What are their goals with those projects? We'll have a fun group of devs pursuing game development in wildly different ways, so whether you're new to game development or a grizzled old timer, there'll be interesting info about the process and opportunities to reflect on why we do what we do.
Panel will start at 7:30 and run until about 8:30, feel free to stick around and chat until 10! If it rains, we'll use the adjacent indoor space.
Huge thank you to our hosts at MIT Game Lab!
Panelists:
Andrew Baillie is creator and organizer of the alternative indie game anthology Indiepocalypse plus any other game-adjacent projects he's decided to burden himself with.
