The Queerness and Games Conference brings together developers and academics for an interactive exploration of LGBT issues and video games (feel free to interpret those concepts broadly). The event combines traditional presentations and panels with design discussions and creative workshops. Our goal is to put scholars and practitioners into discussion to help us imagine a future for a queer presence in video games, the games industry, and games studies. QGCon 2013 is free and open to the public. Because the event is interdisciplinary and interactive, academics, game developers, and journalists alike are welcome to attend, whether or not they are presenting. Register for free and join the cutting-edge conversation about queerness and video games! Learn about research and game design from top academics and games industry representatives through panels, a game jam, and workshops. Together, academics and developers can create a roadmap for the future of LGBT issues in game studies and game design!
