Game Design
A truly royal discipline:Game Design is the heart and soul of game development – the adventure of molding a mere thought into something that millions of people worldwide can casually spend their time on or compete with each other, experience amazing stories, and sometimes even talk about several decades later. We take a look at the ‚special sauce‘ a game needs to stand out of the crowd, how to come up with your next idea, designing a game for long-term success as well as community-driven development.
Narrative Design
Stay a while and listen:Narrative Design is more than just telling a story. It’s breathing life into fantastic worlds created from pixels and polygons, letting players not only experience predetermined adventures but also giving them the means to create their own. Among other topics, we will take a look at narrative design in today’s open worlds, the struggle between game and narrative design, as well as the probably most important question: What actually makes a good story a good story?
Tech & Programming
It’s what keeps them running: The most polished Ferrari isn’t any good without the Tech underneath the hood that makes it move – not the most sexy discipline to some, but certainly essential for every developer. Games are your Ferrari, and devcom’s Tech & Programming track is just what you need to get an update on topics like procedural content creation, ray tracing, photogrammetry and scanning, modern backend technologies, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of creating and using your own engine.
Sound & Music
It’s not a feature, it’s essential: Brilliant Sound Design has the power to trigger your deepest emotions, from fear over joy, to numbing sadness, it can drastically increase a game’s overall quality. Bad sound design, however, can just as easily ruin even the greatest of titles – yet still, music & sound design are an often underappreciated aspect of today’s game development. Devcom 2019 tackles topics like modern sound technologies, procedural sound creation from AAA to indie, production pipelines, and many more.
Art & Visuals
It all starts with a sketch:Artists bring a developer’s thoughts to life and paint the worlds we play in, and the means to do so – from pixel art to photogrammetry, from abstract to hyperrealistic, from ‚Limbo‘ to ‚Uncharted‘ – are almost endless. Lessons on animation, environmental & UI design, particle creation, the power of including personal experiences into one’s art as well as procedural content creation from AAA to indie are just a glimpse of what awaits.
Leadership
Lead them well and they will follow:Leading a team of creative people isn’t easy in times of success, and it surely isn’t in times of crisis. It not only takes dedication from everyone involved but a clearheaded and experienced person to make the right decisions at the right time. Learn from renowned experts from within and outside the games industry about the importance of a leader’s ‚EQ‘, turning previous failure into future success, or establishing fruitful developer/publisher relations.
Production & Team Management
From start to finish: Developing a video game can be fun. Without proper planing and team management, however, it can turn into a desaster quicker than you spell ‚Production & Team Management‘. Listen to our experts sharing valuable insights into how to properly plan and execute production schedules, correctly manage ‚Games as a Service‘ production pipelines, coordinating teams and freelancers from all over the world while battling timezones, as well as overcoming the challenge of cross-platform game development.
Business & Marketing
Adapt, overcome and succeed: Market trends and the needs of today’s players constantly change and so does a game developer in order to make the best Business and Marketing decisions to be successful and survive in the long-run. Streaming services will change the way we play and develop games, building and including communities into the creation process is already more than just a feature, and publishers as well as investors chasing the next big thing constantly adapt their business strategies and service profiles. So should you – our speakers will show you how.
