Games Exchange - Aotearea New Zealand x Australia

The Games Exchange is an event where we bring games from our neighbours to Australia, and vice versa!

In collaboration with developers from other regions or sister industries, we showcase international indie games locally for playtesting and feedback. In exchange, we send off a curated list of Australian games to showcase on their end! 

This time, we're collaborating with Auckland Makes Games to bring several games from Aotearoa over to Sydney for you to try out! In return, we've sent off a variety of Australian games for those in Auckland to enjoy.

It's free to attend, but RSVP and grab a ticket to help us sort out catering! There'll be plenty of free food and drinks as you check out the games. Come hang out and celebrate the variety of games out there 💛

1. Dream Team Supreme by Big Adventure

2. Bashful Adoration by KittyWampus

3. Dungeon Baller by Lazy Bones
