Capybara Games’ Nathan Vella did a great job hosting last night’s IGF Awards, which were sadly lacking in any wins for Toronto nominees Jazzpunk and The Yawhg.

One of the best exhibits at GDC, alt.ctrl features alternative controllers for games and includes Droqen and Patrick Dinnen’s Analog Defender (pictured above) and Droqen’s Bonus Look. Check out Destructoid coverage/photos here.

This headline says it all: “Lovers In A Dangerous Spacetime steals the show at GDC 2014’s Indie Megabooth“.

Zack Kotzer at Now Magazine talks to GDC goers here.

Tomorrow the Curating Video Game Culture: The New Wave of Video Game Events panel is open to anyone with a GDC pass (even an expo). It “brings together talks from five leading organizers of a new wave of cultural video game events, including Babycastles (New York), Punk Arcade (Los Angeles), Hand Eye Society (Toronto), Fantastic Arcade (Austin) and The Wild Rumpus (London) to talk about their experiences in starting and growing cultural video game events, and the unique and diverging motivations that guide their work.” We will be having a picnic in the Yerba Buena park afterwards at 1pm that anyone is welcome to join.

Tonight’s OMDC Ontario Social (co-hosted by the Hand Eye Society) appears to be at capacity, but to those who RSVP’d — see you there!
