GDC 2007: Jeff Minter’s coming over
We’ve got a hot heads-up for the guys with an inkling (and a pass) to go to next year’s Game Developers Conference. We’ve just gotten an event update that Llamasoft’s Jeff ‘Yak’ Minter will be delivering the keynote address at the Independent Games Summit. Xbox 360 dudes will remember Xbox 360’s Neon light synthesizer
Aside from Jeff, it’s also been reported that guys from several other bigwig studios will be making their statements at the Summit. Curious about the current list? Read ’em and weep: Valve, Telltale Games, Introversion, NinjaBee and Gamelab are in the current roster, with other studios expected to make their presence known in this two-day event.
“For the past eight years, the Independent Games Festival has been, like the indie film movement, a source of true daring and a jumping board for reinvigorating large-scale commercial development.” said Jamil Moledina, executive director of the GDC.
The Independent Games Summit is just one of several other segments within the GDC, which is expected to kick off March 5 to 6 next year, at San Francisco‘s Moscone Convention Centre.
