Ever wanted to attend a big industry event like PAX or E3 but couldn’t because it’s held on another country/need to work at the same time/any other reason? I know I have, and I’m willing to bet there’s a lot of people out there who experience the same thing every year. What would you think if I told you that there’s an industry event you can attend from the comfort of your computer, without having to travel or miss work days? Crazy, right?
That unicorn exists, dear reader, and it’s LudoNarraCon, a rather interesting event held entirely through Steam, with playable demos, panels and all sorts of unique live-streamed content that can be accessed for the duration of the convention. This innovative way of connecting creators with both press and gamers didn’t start this year (LudoNarraCon 2020 will be the second time this happens if I remember correctly, as last year we also had the pleasure of experiencing this event) but it’s coming back from April 24-27, so get ready for a fun weekend (and hey, since Cyberpunk 2077 was delayed it’s not like you NEED to spend your time doing something else, right?).
Who should we thank for organizing this marvelous weekend? That would be Fellow Traveller, an indie label who especializes in publishing innovative narrative games (such as the wonderful-looking In Other Waters). They’ve been kind enough to provide us with a list of 23 confirmed exhibitors so you can start marking the days on your schedule (there will be more exhibitors, but they haven’t been revealed)
