The local games industry had a presence at Gen Con Australia which was held in Brisbane this weekend, and the Courier Mail had a write up about it with independent Brisbane games developer, Halfbrick Studios. Halfbrick Studios CEO, Shainiel Deo, talks about the humble beginnings of their studio, and the growing industry in Queensland. From the Courier Mail...
"It's still a relatively small industry in Queensland, but it's growing and it's growing rapidly, globally," Mr Deo said."Australia is quite well known globally (for games development) for its creativity and capabilities to develop world-class games."
Shaniel also talks a little about tax incentives, as well as the hush hush nature of keeping game titles secret, and there's a whole lot of other stuff about the conference as well for those interested. Check it out!
