The Big Indie Pitch @ E3, Los Angeles
The legendary Pocket Gamer Big Indie Pitch is back on the 10th June kindly sponsored by ZQGame, GREE and Samsung US!
Taking place in the trendy Bottle Rock venue in the heart of the city, the pitch is the perfect chance to get your game into the hands of leading journalists from across the world. Handing you 3 minutes with each journalist, attendees will get to sell the strength of their game as well as receiving invaluable feedback on how to take their idea further.
To get involved, all you have to do is RSVP to the event by CLICKING HERE and let us know all about your game. We’ll then go through the entries, pick out our favourites and invite them along to be shown off in front of the assembled media dignitaries. One word of warning though: you only have until the 6th June to get your entries in so get entering while you can.
And if you’re not a developer simply want to come along and enjoy the show, then you’ll be pleased to know that you’re more than welcome to come along too. Simply RSVP as a spectator below, bring along a business card and we’ll let you in. There’ll be food, drink and excellent company so you really would be mad to miss out.
Sign up to the Big Indie Pitch in now and come take a swing at gaming super stardom!
