If Monday night was anything to go by, the future of Open Web Gaming is well and truly bright! Over 150 gamer geeks packed out Bar Music Hall in Shoreditch, London on Monday – braving the cold to enjoy an evening of talks, demos and general chit-chat about gaming on the Open Web.
Speakers, talks, videos, slides and more…
The audience were provided with an awesome lineup as our speakers delivered cool gaming talks, demos and discussions:
