Back by popular demand, this supercharged event hosted by the Sydney Powerhouse Museum on September 1st celebrates the artistry of game development by transforming Powerhouse Ultimo into an interactive hub, spotlighting video games, RPG and tabletop gaming.
So what is Powerhouse Late: Gaming?
In partnership with Games Plus, visitors will get a unique opportunity to engage with new and unreleased games designed by local Sydney developers at the Games Plus Developers Showcase. Competitive spirits will thrive at the Tabletop Gaming Arena, which features a series of boardgames and role-playing games (including Dungeons and Dragons, Blood on the Clocktower and Magic: The Gathering) curated by Games Paradise, curator Nina Earl, Exiles Gaming Club and MagNerds.
Enthusiasts can also play with the Powerhouse’s recently acquired multiplayer game, Untitled Goose Game designed by Melbourne-based developers House House and retro gaming experiences including Space Invaders EXTREME.
Inspiring Industry Guests & Talks
Aspiring game developers can “level up” through a series of 20-minute talks that cover diverse industry experiences and invaluable knowledge for those itching to break into the industry. Speakers include Evin Donohoe and Steven Medway (creators of Blood on the Clocktower), Holly Hawkins (Wargaming Sydney), Nico King (Chaos Theory), Dwayne Fernandes (Minds at Play). There will also be a 40-minute Fireside Chat moderated by Powerhouse Curator Chloe Appleby, featuring Kelsey Gamble (League of Geeks), Kitty Grace (PAX AUS), Reuben Moorhouse (No Moss Studios) and Edmond Tran (Gameshub).
