Welcome to the future of MMOG Development (March 29-30, 2008)

The Indie MMO Game Developers Conference was an incredible success last year, full of passionate designers and developers. The excitement and pure dedication to the art of building virtual worlds was apparent and astounding. A strong focus on networking at IMGDC allows Indie developers to gain a massive amount of invaluable connections and information relevant to the size of project they are working on. Eric Rhea stated last year that IMGDC allowed for over $30,000 in free consultations with industry professionals.

IMGDC is a venue for Independent designers and developers to come together to share ideas and learn in all areas related to MMOGs. IMGDC 2.0 has positioned itself to be an even larger venue with three fantastic tracks covering design, development and business aspects of Indie MMOGs. The present is a time of MMOG giants, but the future lies in the hands of the passionate Indie developers. Do you have the passion?
