GET TICKETS

↓ Some additional FAQs under the cut! ↓

I'm not a person of color. Can I attend? This event is professional game devs or anyone wishing to be professional game dev! This includes artists, composers, writers, programmers, etc. who make things for games! This event includes and centers developers of color and their work, but anyone is welcome to attend!

Is this game virtual or in-person? The event is virtual first with all talks, panels, interviews as well as networking events, live chat, job boards, etc. being available virtually through Swapcard and Gather. However, there are in-person watch parties in WA, LA & NYC where folks can meet others and watch these talks together as well as enjoy light refreshments and potential raffles.

Do I need to be in the games industry to attend? No! We welcome people from outside the industry. Whether you're a fan of games or just curious, you'll have a blast at our event.

What if I can't make it for the live event or am only available part of the time? Even if you can't attend in-person or only have limited availability for the run of the event, your ticket will give you full access to the entire virtual event. This means every talk, panel, interview, etc. can be watched back later at your leisure, including live chat replay so feel free to pop in for what you're available for! The only parts that will be live only are the community connections meetups and dev/speaker mixer hosted virtually on Gather. See the full schedule here!

Hey you guys! Sorry for forgetting to post on here;;  Two weeks ago I put up a new devlog for Skate & Date>> https://gensuta.itch.io/skate-and-date-/devlog/38549/devlog3-late-june-devlog And this past week I’ve been drawing the Rocking Rollergirls - as you can see above! From left to right there’s Tracie, Maggie, Delilah B, Emma and Val(erie) Maggie as y’all know is the star player of the team, but Delilah B. is the actual leader despite not being the jammer for the team.  All of Maggie’s teammates will be in the new build of Skate & Date I’ll be releasing next Saturday since next Saturday is the Game Devs of Color Expo!!
