Participation in GDC (Game Developers Conference) 2025
2025遊戲開發者大會 (GDC) 活動參訪案 ![]() The Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2025 was held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco from March 17 to 21. Despite the challenges that the global gaming industry faces, the GDC remains an important platform for encouraging creativity and exchange. At this year’s conference, “GDC Nights” was introduced for the first time, offering a feast of television, films, comedies, games, and diverse social network interactions over two consecutive evenings, creating an unprecedented immersive exchange experience for attendees. ![]() Among the extraordinary agendas, the visiting members were notably interested in the “Experimental Game Showcase (EGS)” and “alt.ctrl.GDC.” Experimental Game Showcase (EGS) brings together a multitude of independent works that feature creative breakthroughs. In particular, “Consume Me,” which has received numerous major awards, portrays the daily lives of Asian families in a humorous, hand-drawn comic style. On the other hand, alt.ctrl.GDC showcases games with non-conventional control approaches. For instance, game interfaces are embedded inside large figurines, requiring players to extend their hands into the figurines to operate them, which is a complete game changer. These daring and innovative endeavors enabled visiting members to share their discoveries with domestic independent game developer groups through post-conference analysis and observations. It is anticipated that the diverse exchanges will enlighten and inspire them. |
