Shards Between Us at Game Developers Conference 2025
The week of March 17th, our narrative designer/producer and lead artist headed to San Francisco for the Game Developers Conference! Our narrative designer was a Conference Associate, so they got to see some fun discussions throughout the week and meet a bunch of other cool Conference Associates. We even got to demo Shards Between Us in the GDC Conference Associate lounge! We also showed Shards Between Us that Tuesday at Beyond Pixels, an LGBTQIA+ GDC Mixer, organized by Qweerty Gamers, who provide LGBTQIA+ support and resources to marginalized gamers and devs. The organizers, devs, and everyone who stopped by were so sweet! Thank you so much for having us! We’re really looking forward to collaborating on future events that Qweerty puts on. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44798971/53c56d22f0fd5c1ee837f88b1a200174151327d6.jpg Our stickers of Glas and Viola came in right at the beginning of the week, and they came out beautifully! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44798971/06933fc6a2726c8047446540d8af53d5813c659e.png We had such a fun time meeting old friends, making new ones, and connecting with more game devs! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44798971/143561e134f5ed0162f311007fa7be0bf0f2ac1e.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44798971/436d50f163f617c3606a69b479d5a34bfff733c8.jpg Looking forward to seeing y'all next year!Read full article on Community Announcements (ScribbleScape)AnnouncementsOfficial
