GameDevDays 2025

Every year, the GameDevGraz (our “mothership”) is the host of this local community event taking place in TUG Inffeldgasse Campus, connecting game developers and interested people as well as the areas of industry, indies, academia and research within Graz and beyond.

Besides Networking and enjoying food, you can also listen to interesting talks from experts in the (global) gaming industry, get information about the latest news of the local projects and enjoy various game presentations.

This year’s highlight was probably the creation of a “zombie choir” with the audience by voice actress and metal vocalist Aliki Katriou, a member of THE MONSTER FACTORY.

On top of that, there is also a whole area where local games can be tested and played! This allows also for direct feedback and exchange, improving the game’s quality and creating a stronger bond between local nerds.

See you next again next year!

GamesCom2025

From the 20th to the 24th of August, we had the amazing opportunity to attend the largest gaming festival in the world in Cologne as a part of RAW TALENT in the Indie Arena Booth!

RAW TALENT thereby is a format that connects different universities from the DACH region – Germany, Austria and Switzerland – where students can showcase their projects, exchange ideas, gain experience and step into the big world of game development, reaching a wide audience of gamers, game developers, game critiques and all the other people that were coming by.

We exhibited our Arcade Machine that we built and designed ourselves before, featuring the two fun little games “Box in a Box” and “Duck in a Tub” (selfmade with love in Graz obviously).
You can also see some photos in the Projects area to have a sneak-peak into the creation of the Arcade Machine.
Besides exhibiting, we (very sadly) had to get the full experience of GamesCom and test some games (Resident Evil: Requiem, Pragmata, PowerWash Simulator, …), stroll through the artist area, admire Cosplays, do some Networking with other students as well as the local gaming industry and visit some parts of hte beautiful city of Cologne.

It was a blast and a truly enriching experience, making us wish to be there again next year!
