2020國內遊戲開發社群贊助案

  在鼓勵開放分享、人才培育的脈絡下,本會循支持開源論壇活動之模式,針對台北遊戲開發者論壇進行贊助。此活動為近年來國內遊戲開發專門研討會中,完全由民間社群參與資助之代表性活動,內容涵蓋遊戲開發相關之設計、美術、程式、音樂音效與專案管理,到社群營造、市場商務、未來趨勢觀察等多面向議題。今年度受疫情影響之故,活動首度轉換成線上直播形式,雖為首度嘗試,但仍有不錯的成效。期許未來不論外環境是否完全恢復正常,都能使這方面的資訊分享、知識傳承不受中斷。
  To encourage open sharing and talent nurturing, ARF has sponsored Taipei Game Developers Forum in the same way it has supported open source forums. Of all the game developer conferences held in Taiwan in recent years, Taipei Game Developers Forum stands out by being an event that is fully funded by private communities. The diverse range of topics discussed at the forum included game development related design, art, programming, music/ sound effect and project management, community building, commerce and future trend observation. Due to the pandemic this year, the forum was directly broadcasted online instead. The result is satisfactory despite being a first-time attempt. It is hoped that such information sharing and passing on of knowledge will be undisrupted whether or not the external environment fully returns to normal.

  此外,本會自2011年起陸續贊助國內獨立遊戲開發者,前往海外參與各項獨立遊戲作品競賽,讓開發者在差旅負擔酌量減輕的情況下前往海外交流。2020年度不幸因疫情因素,許多本會原先關注之相關海外競賽活動相繼改變形式,海外行程贊助的概念短期內已不適當。我們也將重新檢視後疫情時代,該如何以其他方式支持與協助國內獨立遊戲創作者。
  Since 2011, ARF has been successively sponsoring Taiwan independent game developers in independent game related competitions overseas, lightening the burden of travel expenses for these developers so that they can participate in overseas exchange and interaction, and keep up with changes and trends in game media worldwide. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic in 2020, many overseas competitions ARF has been following previously have taken different forms. In the near future, the sponsorship of overseas trips will no longer be appropriate. We will have to review other ways of supporting and helping independent game developers in Taiwan for the post-pandemic future.
