Over 88% of Australian homes have some form of game playing platform, players range from young to old across genders and games are very much the medium of contemporary culture. The industry makes fortunes but the industry is also in dire need of new models of production, fresh innovative ideas and people prepared to explore potential new forms.
Come and join us for a presentation by a games industry veteran who gave up the glamour of the large studios to go indie.
