Hey fellow devs! I'm part of a little collective (tiny collective) and right now we are organizing a little gamesfestival (tinypalace) in kassel, germany. we want to create a space to hang out, to show games, to experiment ourselves in exhibiting games, to discuss about games, to eat and play together.

Our website will launch in a few days, we (mostly one of us, not me) still working hard on this. But to now you can check for our crowdfunding. There you can find more information about us and why we do this, how we do this and if there will be an area to show your game wip whatever betalpha anniversary version (yes, there will be :+D).








What we will have:
  • an exhibition of games, weird, crappy, lovely, somehow refreshing
  • a game jam
  • talks and workshops (to now we got one customcontroller workshop but we will announce that soon and with it some open call for talks)
  • food
  • a party with dance and games
  • latenight competitive sessions with vs games that are fun but not interesting enough/matching for the exhibition

What shall i tell else? Right now i feel a little confused to blindwrite here and also totally excited about the funding that just started a few hours ago. But in the same time i feel totally hungry, think i gotta go to eat sth now.

So feel free to ask questions, i will try to answer them as much as possible. If the answering here is too slow you also can ask questions on our festival email [email protected]

Our website is to be found here: http://tinypalace.de/

cheers

OH, i nearly forgot to say. This is a free festival! We ain't out for profit from that indiehypewave thats rollin for years now. We just want to make a festival for some underground shizzle and we want to share that with everyone interested.

Sorry in case it's my fault for not properly navigating the site, but on the off chance you do offer a game jam, would there be any way to announce it on your site by date and rules?

Sorry to intrude, things are currently looking like it's just a game convo...

yea, i tackled the topic last meetup and we weren't totally sure when we going to open the festival, which affects the beginning of the jam. but we will announce a specific date with time and rules (although there wont be a lot i guess :>) with the program when it's ready to be released. also we will have an itch.io site including a jam which you can refer your game then.

the jam itself will be most-likely one day long, maybe shorter. but it isnt fixed yet and i can think of it as multi-day jam as well. i guess the only thing i can do right now is to call on your patience :>
but in case you have to keep your time free early enough i can ensure you we will have the jam - multiday as well as shorter - on the 22nd of may.

(i hope my english isnt too bad. in case i articulate myself misunderstandable i would like to try answer your questions again :>)
