Polish Game Developers and their Projects at Pax West in Seattle, WA

22 sierpnia, 2016

This year the Indie Games Poland Foundation organizes a special Polish booth at Pax West where all visitors will be able to meet Polish game developers and their projects.

Indie Games Poland Foundation was created in 2015 with the aim to support video games developers in their education, production, and promotion. The Foundation wants to assist independent developers in the process of brand creation and establishing their games as full-fledged products by setting up a knowledge base, arranging training, conferences, and exhibitions.
 

 Pax is also a unique opportunity to show outstanding Polish approach towards video games creation. Polish video game industry ecosystem consists of numerous small studios with the exceptionally creative approach. The international audience appreciated many of these niche projects, and some of them were awarded by prestigious industry organizations.

PAX initiative was created in 2004 originally as Peny Arcade Expo, and it has been hailed as a celebration of gamer culture. Thanks to the diversity of the attractions PAX is a combination of open keynote speeches on video games production and industry, discussion panels, independent games exhibition and gamers culture festival in all possible aspects  starting from playing, ending with games-inspired music concerts. For the last few years, PAX became one of the most important places where independent game producers can easily confront their audience competitors and partners. It is also a chance for Polish Video Game Industry to be brought out into the open - not only with bigger titles but also with smaller ones that bring the fresh air and new unique approach.
