The ReVersed Game Jam, happening next week, gets some love from the biggest gamedev in Austria: Bongfish! This ensures that we can offer all of our jammers some food & drinks, as well as make sure that RaumD, always maintained by monochrom & the QDK, get the funding they deserve, in these trying political times.. Thanks Bongfish!
The scholarships include two opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students, IGDA Scholars and Women in Games Ambassadors, and Next Gen Leaders, a retention program for under-represented minority game developers with 3-10 years of experience. The programs include an All-Access pass to GDC, a travel stipend, an individually-selected mentor, and great personal and professional development opportunities too. More here!
