If you are attending GDC to pitch to a publisher, remember:
- You are owed respect and professionalism no matter who you are
- They couldn't operate without developers
- You are evaluating THEM as much as they are evaluating you
You got this. You deserve to be there. I am rooting for you.

Hello Bluesky!
We host exhibitions that bridge gaming and art, curating themed shows featuring games that push the medium’s boundaries. These works ask questions, reflect, offer insight, and explore ideas—games that deserve recognition not just in living rooms but as pieces worthy of gallery walls.
