Game Republic

Yorkshire and Northern Developers Storm EGX

egxGame Republic was at the huge EGX event at the Birmingham NEC from 24th-27th September, including hosting the GamesIndustry.biz Investment Summit, which brings games developers and investors together for talks, a panel and formal meetings.

However, EGX also gave us the opportunity to check out the myriad of Yorkshire and Northern England GR members that were showing off their games to the 80,000 people who attended over the four days.

 

Team17 was there showing off its new game Worms WMD as well as many of the indie developers that the company is now publishing, including crazy battle-platformer Penarium and post-apocalyptic disaster management game Sheltered.
