They'll be taking part in two particular sessions, "What we learned from self-publishing Flight Control and Real Racing on the Apple App Store (Monday at 2:10pm), and "The State of Australian Game Industry" at 4:55pm.
They're also generously sponsoring students from RMIT, AIE, and Qantm, as well as local game developers who've been recently let go, to come along to Game Connect '09.
- We’re sponsoring six students from RMIT, AIE and Qantm to attend the conference. If you’re a student at one of these institutions and would like to attend, please contact Helen Stuckey (RMIT), Giselle Rosman (AIE) or Phil Wilkinson (Qantm).
- It’s been a tough year for the industry, so we’ve also got four tickets for people who have recently lost their games industry job due to studio closure or downsizing. For more details or to express your interest, please complete this form (by 5pm Wednesday 2 December).
You don't have much time left, and spots are extremely limited! So if you fit the criteria, be sure to head on to the Firemint website and contact them for your chance to see Game Connect at no cost.
