If you’ve been hoping for a conference closer to home, you should be backing this Kickstarter for the Midwest Game Developers Summit (MGDS), a conference for game developers in the Midwest. The MGDS will be held July 12th-13th, 2014 in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin, which is only a couple of hours from Chicago!
The conference, which evolved from last year’s Wisconsin Game Developers Summit, is being organized primarily by students and recent graduates with support and help from local IGDA leadership throughout the Midwest. Please spread the word about this!
