On Tuesday, June 30th, 2009, Flashpoint Academy was proud to host the first ever IGDA Chicago Demo Night, an evening dedicated to what’s new and upcoming in the world of game development.

Headlined by Robomodo’s Tony Hawk: The Ride and Vogster’s Robocalypse: Beaver Defense, IGDA Demo Night also gave teams from Flashpoint Academy, DePaul University, Columbia College, Chewysoft, Entertaining Games, and others the opportunity to present works-in-progress and recently completed projects to an audience of their peers. Other presenters included Joseph Hocking, Charlie Hoyt, Zooptek, and Flashpoint’s own Simeon Peebler.

Turn out was great, and we’re so happy that everyone arrived early enough to enjoy some snacks and socialize a bit in Flashpoint’s Digital Garage before the presentations began. It was very cool to have so many talented minds together in one place and we’re very excited to participate again next year.
