ICEBREAKERS a series about celebrating Nordic successes

/

The Nordic game dev community doesn’t discuss and celebrate our successes enough!

From all over the Nordics, we produce plenty of wonderful and award-winning games but we discuss them quite seldom, which is why IGDA Finland, IGDA Sweden and Norway’s Noneda have joined forces to form Icebreakers, with the aim of doing just that.

We hope to bring the Nordics closer, discuss our differences and similarities, and of course, about the games we make. This time we’re talking with a handful of devs who worked on award-winning games from all three countries!

Special guests:
Oliver Granlund (Sweden) - A Way Out & It Takes Two (Hazelight)
Eevi Korhonen (Finland) - Returnal (Housemarque)
Catharina Bøhler (Norway) - My Child Lebensborn (Sarepta Studio)

Join us 30.03 @ 20:00 (Finnish time) on Twitch or listen to the audio podcast later on!

IGDA Helsinki is back!

/

It's been a long couple of years of not seeing people
But that has come to an end, IGDA Helsinki is BACK! 🎉🎉

We aim to start our monthly Meetups again and we're starting with a proper banger.

Evenings meetup is all about rekindling all those old friendships and connections. No seminars, no demos, nothing but just good ol' times and meeting your mates!

This is possible because we are a community and as a testament to that, we have three sponsors who were more than happy to help make this Meetup happen. An enormously heartfelt thank you to Remedy, Ubisoft RedLynx and Supercell! ❤️
