Nordic Game Indie Night 2013 program

By Lau on May 13th, 2013

Nordic Game Indie Night 2013 is starting to look like a blast. Wednesday May 22nd from 18:00 – 24:00 is squeezed in between Unite Nordic and Nordic Game. We expect a lot of people showing up, either as a final party of Unite, a kick-off of Nordic Game, a nice bridge between the two events or just a solo event in Malmö. The event is free and open to the public, so no reason not to show up.

During the night the 8 finalist games will be showcased and the audience will be able to vote for their favorite to win the Nordic Indie Sensation Award at the Nordic Game Awards May 23rd.

If you are traveling from Copenhagen by train you will be able to get a great ticket discount. Check out this link with all the information.

Nordic Game Indie Sensation 2012: LAZA KNITEZ!

By Lau on June 7th, 2012

So much stuff is going on right now so we have a hard time catching up. Nordic Game Conference is over and we had a blast. We kicked off the conference by organizing an indie summit, party and exhibition the day before the main conference and over 600 people showed up.

Check out this video from GRTV which captures a lot of moments from the conference. 03:24: Me being hungover, 4:16: Nifflas talking about the game How the Game, and 09:45: Team Buttfighter receiving the Indie Sensation Award 2012 for their local multiplayer arcade game LAZA KNITEZ!. Team Buttfighter used the occasion on stage to knight the best LAZER KNITEZ! player in the lazerwerse, Simon Gustaffson from Redgrim.
