Chicago Indie Game Dev Extravaganza With Special Guest - Tuesday, June 21st

[Curiosoft]

The Indie Game Club is dedicated to building a stronger indie game development community in Chicago.

We are having a Chicago Indie Game Dev Extravaganza. The purpose of this event is to meet other like-minded Indie Game Developers in the Chicago area.

This is the perfect chance for students, veterans, and aspiring game-developers to meet up and learn the ins and outs of creating your own successful indie game/business.


We have invited and confirmed the presence of leading indie game developers in the industry.

Come meet the leading indie game developers from around the nation including James C. Smith (Reflexive Arcade), Mike Boeh (Retro64) and the designer of the hit web game Proximity.

Here are the details of the event...
Date: Tuesday, June 21st, 2005
Time: 7:30 PM
Location: Gameworks (at the Streets of Woodfield location)
http://www.gameworks.com/locations/01_mainpages/loc_chicago.html

Itinerary: We will meet up at the bar location of Gameworks and shoot the breeze for an hour. Then we'll head off to the Starbucks next door at 8:30 PM and show off current game demos.

Please RSVP as I need to ensure that we have enough space at Gameworks to seat everyone.

Price: FREE + the cost of any drinks you decide to buy yourself

Prizes: There will be prizes given away during the extravaganza. You have to be present to win.

Later,

[James C. Smith]

I'll be there.

Presuming it was just coincidence that his RSVP was James' 666th post, and that there's no spooky cult stuff going on -- I too will be there.

[Robert Cummings]

Would love to turn up, but there's this small matter of the Atlantic Ocean...

[Yuriy O]

I would like to attend if have some free skymiles left and my buddy will let me stay for day in Chicago :) How many people is going to be there?

[GBGames]

Presumably replying in the affirmative here counts as RSVPing? And I get first dibs on the Ms. Pac-man arcade game!

[stanchat]

Count me in.

[Mike Boeh]

I missed the last 2 because of family commitments, mostly due to it being earlier than it used to be. But I will make this one...

[stonewall]

I'll be there too. Still a newb, but I'll try to have something to show.

[TimS]

I'll actually be bringing one more, if I can alter my RSVP to count for two.

Hey folks,

Here is one last reminder about this Tuesday's event....also, feel free to pass the meeting info to friends/students/co-workers interested in game development.

Take care,

Well, since your announcement SAYS I'll be there, I guess that means I'll have to come.

I probably won't get there till the 2nd half of the EXTRAVAGANZA SPECTACULAR though. I gots to eat first.
