It’s summertime already, so that means the UK’s biggest game developers conference, Develop, is upon us once again. We’re gearing up to turn Brighton into a hive of fun, frolics and rampant opportunity with a massive Pocket Gamer events mash-up on July 8th, 2014, at Brighton’s Alfresco venue.
We’ll be hosting one of our famous (infamous?) Pocket Gamer Mobile Mixers alongside Develop courtesy of Everyplay/Unity, which will also boast an exciting Immersion and Samsung-sponsored Big Indie Pitch session to help all you growing game devs get noticed (while having a drink in your hand).
In case you’re new to the Big Indie Pitch concept, we put indie game devs in front of leading journalists and industry players for three minutes to show off their new titles and receive feedback, inspiration and exposure, before moving on to the next expert in traditional speed-dating style. Enter now.
The Mobile Mixer offers a great panel session so you can immerse yourself in the world of games creation, business and promotion, before networking the night away with the cream of the development world.
Develop is an essential event for game makers, and is made all the more essential by the Big Indie Mixer, so register for your ticket today. And if you’ve got a game you want the world to see, send in the details by clicking right here. We’re also happy to talk to anyone who might want to be a judge in the Big Indie Pitch.
See you in Brighton!
