Swedish Game Awards 2017

Development Hell at the Swedish Game Awards 2017

We’re still busy publishing content from the Gotland Game Conference so this post will be brief: the The Swedish Game Awards took place in Visby this weekend and it was a blast!

The SGA is a national competition for all game educations, and this year our students took home no less than three awards!

Congratulation and well played to all the teams! And to everyone; enjoy the summer break. We’ll see you back on campus in august.

GGC 2017, Day 2

The second day of the Gotland Game Conference is split in two; with the first part being another day of games and insightful lectures, and the second part being the epic award ceremony and party in the evening. To avoid completely swamping this post, we’re putting only a few photos here and sharing the full set on Facebook. There’s also a lot of activity on the Instagram tag – #GGConf2017.

Recordings of all the talks will be available on our YouTube-channel later this summer, but you don’t need to wait to see the Award Ceremony – just keep scrolling. 🙂
