Featuring Matt Ditton – Defiant Dev, Polymonkey, Ex Pandemic, Griffith QCA Game Design course coordinator, Technical Artist and programming and art love evangelist, currently finishing work on Alternator for the ABC

With an international reputation as a speaker, experience across professional game development and indie dev, between education and commercial teams and of course, member of the 2010 winning pro-league team in the fabulous 48 hour game making challenge, Matt will be telling the story of indie gets serious and how the transition from making a game for fun into making a game with a message actually works on the ground.
