IndieCade Creators Retreat 2026 returns to Los Angeles on 8-9 December 2026, bringing together independent game developers, designers, artists, educators and industry leaders for two days of collaboration, discussion and creative exchange. Designed as an intimate and highly interactive event, the retreat focuses on meaningful conversations, knowledge sharing, networking opportunities and hands-on feedback sessions that help creators navigate the evolving indie games landscape. Attendees can expect thought-provoking talks, unconference sessions, workshops and opportunities to connect with peers from across the global games community.
Hosted by IndieCade in partnership with ASU, the Creators Retreat provides a welcoming environment where game makers can share projects, explore new ideas and build lasting industry relationships. Whether attending open playtesting sessions, participating in discussions on studio sustainability and discoverability, or meeting potential collaborators, participants gain practical insights and valuable connections that support long-term creative and professional growth. The event remains one of the most community-driven gatherings for independent game development in North America.
Organiser: IndieCade, in partnership with ASU (New Economy Initiative at ASU).
