MELBOURNE \u2013 Wednesday 21 July, 2010 – It might be cold outside, but the Game Developers\u2019 Association of Australia today announced that it\u2019s following the sun again this year, with the annual Game Connect Asia Pacific event scheduled to head to the Gold Coast in October. <\/p>\n
Game Connect Asia Pacific (GCAP 2010) will focus on the key theme \u2018The Player Experience\u2019 and explore the world of video games from the eyes of the game player.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve set the bar extremely high for GCAP and we\u2019re dedicated to ensuring that this year\u2019s event reaches a whole new level in networking, collaboration, industry insight and development. It\u2019s great to have the support of the Queensland Government who have joined us again as a major event sponsor,\u201d commented Antony Reed, CEO of the Game Developers\u2019 Association of Australia.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe wanted to explore the world of games through the eyes of the game player, because when it comes down to it, they\u2019re why games are made and who they\u2019re made for. The journey begins with the announcement of a game through to the enormous communities that can develop around a title,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sure that this year\u2019s theme will no doubt inspire all sorts of interesting insights and industry commentary and will also lend itself to some great results in the hands-on workshops.\u201d<\/p>\n
GCAP 2010 will be held at the Gold Coast Convention Centre on Thursday 13 October and Friday 14 October, 2010. <\/p>\n
All keynotes, sessions and workshops will focus on various aspects of the overall player experience.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s important that we use the GCAP platform to showcase the innovation and opportunity that our region can offer, while at the same time challenging and inspiring the future development of the games industry. Get set for an epic GCAP 2010,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
