  本會自2011年起派員參訪遊戲開發者大會(Game Developers Conference)並透過相關線上報導與實體聚會,將此一全球最大的遊戲開發者交流活動之研習心得與相關資訊,和國內獨立遊戲開發者分享。
  Since 2011, ARF has been sending representatives to visit Game Developers Conference and sharing the learning experiences and information gained from this largest global event for game developers' exchange, both through online reports and physical gatherings, with Taiwan independent game developers.

  GDC 2023於3月20至24日在美國舊金山舉行,內容包含遊戲開發團隊領導、創新設計、經營管理與永續性等議程,及多個不同主題的展覽與獎項頒發。其中「獨立遊戲節」入圍作品、「另類操作介面展」與「實驗性遊戲發表議程」(EGW)等,是本會特別關注的獨立遊戲相關活動,今年也充滿令人驚奇的創新與實驗作品;故於2023年4月30日之參訪後分享會中,邀請EGW入選作品之一《Awakening》的作者Sebastián Blanco,以預錄影片的方式進行遠端演講,分享實驗性遊戲創作思維與開發建議,期藉交流讓與會者更加了解國際前沿設計。  

  GDC 2023 was held in San Francisco, USA, from March 20 to 24, and included topics such as leadership in game development teams, innovative design, business management, and sustainability, along with various themed exhibitions and awards ceremonies. Among all the events at GDC 2023, the "Independent Games Festival" finalists, the "alt.ctrl.GDC", and the "Experimental Gameplay Workshop (EGW)" were the events related to independent games which were of particular interest to ARF. In this year, the event was also filled with astonishing innovations and experimental works. Consequently, at the post-visit sharing session on April 30, 2023, we invited Sebastián Blanco, the author of "Awakening", which is one of the selected works at EGW, to give a remote lecture through a prerecorded video, sharing his thoughts on experimental game creation and advice for game development. The aim was to enhance the understanding of avant-garde game design among attendees through this exchange.
