DOUBLE THE FUN! WE'RE BACK! @torontogamesweek we're coming for you!
FRIDAY JUNE 12, 4-9PM, George Brown Polytechnic!
The reception was incredible from last year, it was inevitable that we run this back. If you are developing a game in any stage, shape, or form and want to receive actionable feedback on your title, this is the place for you.
The G.R.I.D. is a welcoming, behind-the-scenes space where indie devs, studios, and solo creators can show off their games, get honest, helpful feedback, and keep improving - no matter what stage the game’s in. It’s all about structure, support, and moving your project forward with fresh eyes and solid input.
A big thank you to @unitytechnologies , @interactive_ontario , and @xpgaminginc for running this back with us. There is so much to talk about with round two...
Applications open April 6th!

If you applied before the deadline and there are no significant issues with your application...then congrats. :)
But for those inevitable "I missed the deadline messages" I'll likely get...one more shot for you. No guarantees though. Will depend on room!
Late reg ends May 23 for developers.

Big thank you for the warm reception once again.
It was so good, I'm going to drop some tidbits for what's new this year:
Pulse: No more paper and pencil, no more Google forms. I made a full blown ecosystem to handle EVERYTHING. You will need to download the app to access the raffles and surveys and much much more.
PEOPLE'S CHOICE: TWO top prizes on the line this year and one will be decided by you the people.
So stoked for what's to come!

FIFTEEN YEARS IN THE MAKING
When @megapower_games came to us and told us they were doing a mobile version of their @leveluptostudentshowcase winning title Rolling Pig, we threw all our weight and investment behind it.
More bacon, more rolling, more fun.
