European Indie Game Days

Time for another event outside Switzerland. Off to the European Indie Game Days in Paris!

The Tower Offense team was kindly invited thanks to a collaboration between the EIGD and the Ludicious.
Also we were nominated for the EIGD best students game award.

I was a bit worried at first, because I had to give a talk just about an hour after my plane was supposed to arrive. And of course, my flight was delayed.

Made it to the EIGD just in time, pew! I entered the talk room reeeally quietly.
And there were a lot more people in there than expected! (The room looked smaller from the outside).

Talk time!

Even though we were not actually exhibiting, I still managed to show Tower Offense to quite a few people (by setting it up on a coffee table, muhaha)

But I also had plenty of free time to watch almost all the talks.

And to play all the exhibited games :D
There were some really cool ones, like Post Human WarDésiré and A Street Story.

And in the evening, the moment of truth had arrived. I had to pitch Tower Offense in a 5 minutes presentation. Aaaand….
We actually managed to win the students award :D!

The grand prize of the evening went to Blindflug Studios :)
As always, the event was over quick. But it was really worth attending, I made a lot of new friends :D

I’ll be back EIGD, I’ll be back.
