Today is a big day for Thinky Games: our first ever online conference devoted to the making of puzzle-adjacent games kicks off today, and it's all entirely free for you to join in. ThinkyCon begins in just over an hour at 12:00 UTC-04 (09:00 PDT, 12:00 EDT, 17:00 BST) and the festivities are all taking place on YouTube.
The next three days are stuffed full of talks from industry veterans and experts, speaking on topics that range from puzzle design, to breaking down the development process of specific games, to art and marketing. The entire schedule is available on our ThinkyCon page, but here's a quick preview of what's coming today:
For more info on each of today's presentations, you can visit the ThinkyCon Day 1 page where the speakers and descriptions of their topics are showcased. Day 2 and Day 3 are also mapped out in detail.
We hope you'll join us live for some talks that catch your eye, but if there's anything you miss, fear not: everything will be available to watch on our YouTube channel after the conference. It's a safe bet that people will have a lot to say about these in-depth talks, so we have a dedicated channel on our discord server to give you a place to share your thoughts. Come hang out, and enjoy the three-day celebration of games-that-make-you-think!
