Free to Play 2014
“Indie games provide freedom. The freedom of a still fairly nascent medium to be seen as valid, artistic expression. The freedom of its creators to convey their hopes, fears and dreams through glowing dots on a screen, no matter who they are. So let’s celebrate that. Each and every one of us. Free to be. Free to talk. And free to play.”

72 Hours Interactions Witten
Website: http://72hourinteractions.com/
Video from: http://www.labkultur.tv/video/72-hours-interactions-ein-resuemee
“ [...] sixty architects, game designers, craftspeople, tinkerers and city planners will form five international teams and compete in a special World Championship.
International teams challenged themselves in only 72 hours – three days and nights – to respond to a mission at a local site. Each team designs and builds a temporary structure that invites people to come together in play, transforming the city life of Witten.
Each team explored their own variation of “gameful architecture”. How can a built environmental structure encourage people to meet and interact ? How can it encourage different play styles and possible games? Should it offer stages or maybe hiding places? Let us feel safe or free? Together or alone? Ecstatic or thoughtful? Let’s see what happens when citizens become more than simple users and indulge in play, in public, with each other and the fabric of the city itself.”

“The NYU Game Center Incubator is a three-month program where select graduating student projects are given time, space, mentorship, and resources to maximize their chances of commercial success. The purpose of the Incubator is to bridge the experimental and highly creative work being done at the Game Center with the realities of the marketplace.

Pixel Punks - a showcase of deranged DIY games.
Molleindustria (Paolo Pedercini), Caitlin Boyle, Tim Sherman, and Tenley Schmida (aka Crushed Screen Collective) put an exhibition of indie/DIY games together.
7 Feb 2014 - Pittsburgh, PA, USA
From Molleindustria's blog post:
"Pixel Punks showcases rough around the edge, confrontational, homemade games in the context of an historical punk venue in Pittsburgh, PA. It’s in part inspired by new arcade experiences like BabyCastles circa 2010, and in part a response to the museification/institutionalization of artsy videogames.
“Arcades are not dead! Skip school and waste your time at Pixel Punks, a showcase of deranged independent games. In the depths of the Internet a brave new movement of DIY game makers is producing rough, cheap, and brilliant digital entertainment. Their budget is zero. Their deadlines are whenever they want. Their games are fast and direct like a three-chord-song or visceral and political like a photocopied zine. Pixel Punks is an homage and a gateway drug to this exciting phenomenon.”
