thatgamecompany @ GDC
Posted by Kellee on February 16th, 2008
Woo hoo! It's that time again – it's GDC time! Here are the things TGC has going on next week, so if you can, pencil us in!
Monday, 10am: @Independent Games Summit, Kellee Santiago, Jonathan Mak,
and Pekko Koskinen talk about how to push the discussion of games past the
words “good” or “better” or “fun.” Looking for “better” games seeks
uniformity of value. Yet we need to understand the variety, potentiality of
games first, to know where we are going…. or could be going.
Tuesday, 8:00pm-1:30am @The Cellar, thatgamecompany co-sponsors, along
with Flashbang Studios and Gastronaut Studios, 9Bit: Indie Party
Extraordinaire. See flyer below! We hope to see you there.
Wednesday, 6:30pm @Game Developer Choice Awards, flOw has been nominated
for three Game Developer Choice Awards, including Best Debut Game, Best
Downloadable, and the Innovation award. Please come and show your support!
Make sure to holler when they announce flOw ? I found out at DICE that game
developers aren't schooled in the ways of cheering for your own games.
Thursday @ Audio G.A.N.G. Awards, flOw has been nominated for an award for
Interactive Score, and Austin Wintory has been nominated for Rookie of the
Year!!
Friday, 1:00pm @GDC, Jenova Chen will be participating in the annual Game
Designers Rant, hosted by Eric Zimmerman. He's pitched some ideas to Eric,
but they all apparently need “more gas.” So you will have to come to find
out what his rant is about. =)

And, in case you missed it, flOw PSP has been announced. I'm not sure what Sony has planned, but I'm hoping they put it out on the floor so you guys can check it out!

This is really the stuff that inspires us. When you guys take the time to show us, in whatever way, how our games make you feel. So, in honor of this wonderful genre called “fan art” we are starting a new section to our blog to feature some of them.
