Looking back at Gaming Connect in Ludwigshafen:
The event wasn’t super crowded — but the venue was great, and the conversations we had were even better.
We received some truly valuable feedback on the latest version of Iconic.

#IndieGameDev #indiegames #events #iconicgame
Entrance to the Gaming Connect 2025 event in Ludwigshafen. A banner with the event logo and sponsor logos stands next to an open glass door leading into the venue. The banner reads “Gaming Connect – Speedrun Your Future.” Bright daylight casts shadows on the steps and white facade of the building. A table with a laptop, an external monitor, a game controller, a mouse, and a glass of red beverage. The monitor displays a game menu titled 'ICONIC'. The laptop shows the game's user interface. Business cards and a yellow flyer with a gamepad icon are also on the table.

You gain resources in two ways:
First: from mining — if you bring the right fragments.
Second: from stage rewards after battle.
Two sources. One goal: progress.
