COLLIDERS game maker meet-up

Colliders is a professional Game Maker Meet-up , welcoming any creative, regardless of the engine you are working in. At Colliders we talk, present, introduce, give feedback and enjoy creations and ideas and, of course, we play.

Colliders is developing a local network for the indie/ arthouse /serious game industry in the east of the Netherlands. With Colliders, we want to support each other and create more opportunities for collaborations and exchange. The meet ups are open to makers, enthusiasts, producers, artists, curators etc...

10-10 Edition:

If we look at the evolution of the medium, videogame developers are known for embracing technical limitations and squeeze them in creative ways as part of their creative process.

Whatever you find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely becomes its signature. […] All this will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided (Brian Eno 1995).

In this edition of the colliders we will have a collection of modern games that revisit the aesthetics of old ones. We will explore and discuss the intrinsic features of the medium and why artist and creatives choose this format to tell their stories.

Additionally we will have the classic presentations to share with one another our latest discoveries, progress and stories.

Do you want to give a presentation or bring your game to test it with the community? Let us know and we will add it to the plan :)

Register here to help us welcome you as good as possible. We will also send you relevant news and dates for the next Meet-ups
