AdventureX 2019 - Nov 2nd & 3rd

Ali · Mon 27/05/2019 16:55:49

AdventureX will return to the British Library on November 2nd and 3rd. The full announcement is here

Tickets will be on sale later this year, but you can currently apply to exhibit or speak at the event. If you've been to AdventureX before, you'll know that it's a celebration of narrative driven games. We often accept classic point and click games, as well as IF, VNs, exploration games and experimental interactive narratives. Exhibiting is free.

Check out the Reasons to Exhibit at AdventureX for more info. Let me know if you have any questions!

EDIT: Now with working links!

Woo! Going to try make it this year.

milkanannan · Mon 27/05/2019 18:48:30

Wish I could go. Maybe some year down the road.

milkanannan · Mon 27/05/2019 18:51:27

Friendly suggestion: you guys should create a mailing list for the site.

Ali · Mon 27/05/2019 18:55:54

You can join the AdventureX mailing list here: https://adventurexpo.us14.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=f579adbfa1e12de662063e578&id=fdabd2739b

We livestream the talks, so you can still participate from overseas. Here's one of the talks from last year that Kotaku picked up: https://kotaku.com/developer-shows-how-to-write-good-game-dialogue-using-b-1830797912

^BUMP^

The deadline is this Sunday, so if you're sitting on a cool demo, now would be a good time to get an application in.

My game has advanced a lot but I don't think submitting again makes sense, so I am thinking to just go to check things out once tickets are available

Ali · Fri 07/06/2019 17:54:47

It's a bit hidden in the small print - but from this year on we aren't accepting the same game more than once. Sorry I didn't make that clearer in advance, but I'm glad you didn't spend a lot of time preparing a submission. Hope to see you there!

I've submitted Sumatra: Fate of Yandi!

Now crossing fingers and toes

WHAM · Sat 29/06/2019 10:19:00

Arr, am too late to this party, but I might book flights and come out anyway as a guest.
Been a long time since I last got to travel to the UK, and AdventureX sounds fun! Just came across a few photos I took in the 2012 event a few nights ago.

Ali · Sat 29/06/2019 10:54:06

Yes, I'm afraid the submission window is closed, but tickets will go on sale in the not-too-distant future

milkanannan · Sat 29/06/2019 14:43:31

Totally going to one of these someday!

Ali · Sat 02/11/2019 00:43:54

Stream is working, now Dave's talk is starting

Ali · Sat 02/11/2019 10:46:53

The stream works for once!

cat · Sat 02/11/2019 11:37:13

Nice talks by Dave and Hannah.

Not much interested in the next ones, maybe I'll join again for "Building Emotion-driven Games" later today.

AdventureX was so amazing this year! Big thanks to Ali and the organisers. Just keeps getting better and better. Was great catching up with quite a few of the AGS crew

We were lucky to be demoing Sumatra: Fate of Yandi and had lots of lovely feedback.

Here's a picture of our stall -

The first talks have appeared on YouTube by now, in particular the Dave Gilbert (surviving a sort of writer's block) and the Hannah Flynn (marketing for adventure game developers) ones. https://www.youtube.com/user/AdventureXpo/videos

I watched a few of the recorded presentations. Great stuff! I thought this one was particularly inspiring:

That's an excellent one! Though it is from 2018. But still, a very helpful talk.
