Yes, we are going to be running a game dev conference all about thinky games! There’s a treasure trove of thinky knowledge locked up in some wonderful brains and in the depths of Discord, and we’d love to help share that knowledge more widely, bringing developers and fans behind the scenes of the games we love.
Some quick facts:
- the event will take place between Thursday 4th April and Saturday 6th April
- it’ll be hosted entirely online!
- it'll be free for everyone to attend!
- and it'll be full of thinky talks!
We’ll bring you more of the specifics later, but first, we need speakers — and that could be you! We are open to all kinds of talk proposals related to thinky games, whether you're a hobbyist or have made thinky games your career. Maybe you tackled an exciting design challenge during your latest project, implemented a new tool that has been super useful, or maybe you have a unique background that makes you approach thinky games differently. These are just a few examples of great talks we’d love to host.
If you have any ideas for a talk related to thinky games, we’d love to hear about it! Or if you haven’t yet figured out what you’d like to talk about, feel free to discuss things on Discord or get in touch with us directly via Discord DM or email. We’d love to chat through some ideas with you!
So, if you'd like to present a talk, let us know via the talk proposal form! The deadline is February 25.
After selecting the talks and figuring out the details of the schedule, we will reach out to speakers to collect more information (like the days and hours you are available).
