Yonderplay Selection @ Nordic Game 2018
This year we went for something new; yonder, which means something along the lines of "right over there". It is just out of reach. It could be a leading star, a falling star or an outsider star. Ok, the 'star analogy' is not the best, but we have felt that our showcase which year after year has… -

Playing drones as instruments

There is a zeitgeist surrounding the recent surge of toy quadcopters [toy helicopters with 4 rotors that can stabilise itself], colloquially called…

Goodbye w00t, Hello new stuff
w00t is closing down W00t started three years ago, as a collaboration between Indgreb, Vallekilde Højskole and Copenhagen Game Collective. During these three years, we have created what we think is Copenhagen’s three most beautiful and interesting play festivals. Needless to say, we are proud to have been part of this. It is now time…
