Any developers in the area that would be interested in showing off their games (finished or otherwise) at an IGDA sponsored event in Chicago?  We're aiming for late May or June.  Let me know and I'll keep your info down.

I might have something to show. Sort of worried it isn't presentable enough yet.

If it's in June, I'd be interested in demoing something.

Hey guys, details here: http://www.meetup.com/IGDA-Chicago/events/18014811/

@boxedlunch: feel free to send in submissions up until Friday.  That's just a soft deadline, though, so if you have something after that let me know and I'll put you in.  I'm jay[at]lunargiantstudios.com

We haven't had any serious talks about doing another showcase, but it's definitely worth considering.  Here are the details for tomorrow's, for those interested:

ATTENDEES
It costs nothing to attend the Chicago Games Showcase.  Just show up at 12pm, take a seat, and enjoy the show. We're expecting a full house. We’ll have a 15 minute break around half way through the showcase where everyone can mingle.

PRESS
No press badges are necessary, however, we’d appreciate it if you came and said hello to the organizers when you come in!  We’ll all be wearing name badges, so we’ll be easy to pick out.

DEVELOPERS
Plan to make your presentation about 10 minutes, and be sure to bring your computer with a local copy of your game or project (just in case internet access is spotty.) Also note, the projector in the room uses a vga connection. Depending on attendance, we’ll organize for Q&A either after each presentation, or after everyone’s done showing.  We’re also planning on taking video of your presentations, so if you’d like us to withhold publishing anything on the internet, let us know.

If you haven't registered to show your game, please do so in the following link so we can better organize the event.
