At our previous events, we've had attendees from all corners of the games industry, including publishers, press, GDC speakers, and other industry veteran guests.Community: At an Indie BYOG event you'll find like-minded indie devs who are on the same journey as you. Connect with old mates and meet new collaborators at this relaxed showcase!Affordability: The barrier to entry for exhibiting a game at Indie BYOG is lower than other GDC showcases. We run these events without the inflated price tag so emerging devs have the opportunity to exhibit during the GDC week. There are some premium screens available for those who want increased visibility, but for standard exhibitors, this is your chance to shine during GDC 2026 without breaking the bank.WHAT GAME CAN I BRING?We're excited to see a diverse range of indie games, spanning all genres. This means:✓ WIP Games✓ Game Jam Projects✓ Recently-Released Titles (&lt;6 months)✓ Any small demo or proof of concept you're testing!Bring your game on a laptop, Steamdeck, Switch, or any other portable device with any necessary peripherals (controllers, headphones, charger, cleaning wipes, etc.) Less is more, as space is limited. There will be some power available for exhibitors at the event, but not enough for everyone to bring a gaming PC!If you have a project with unique space or hardware requirements (VR/MR, custom controller, tabletop game, etc.), please let us know in the order form so we can confirm if the space will be suitable.There won't be loud party/club music, but a packed bar is still loud, so if you want players to be able to hear your game, ensure you bring headphones.The safety/comfort of the community is our top priority, and for this reason, inappropriate projects and behaviour will not be accepted. See the safety / code of conduct information further down the page for more info about expected behaviour.We reserve the right to cancel + refund your demo ticket if we deem your project not appropriate for the event. We will reject games that are made completely with AI assets, feature aggressive microtransactions, abuse, offensive imagery, etc.WHO IS INDIE BYOG?We're indie game devs, and we're for indie game devs.We began hosting casual Indie BYOG events to provide game creators with the opportunity to showcase their projects at prestigious industry events around the world.We provide a space where established and emerging developers can showcase their unreleased games in front of a diverse audience of professional developers, publishers, and investors in the games industry, and receive valuable feedback as well as opportunities for mentorship and partnerships.Indie BYOG is managed by Onerat Games and Sub-Zero Sound.ABOUT THE VENUE - BUZZWORKSBuzzworks is located on 11th street, a short Uber/Lyft or a 25-min walk from the Moscone.Drinks can be purchased from the bar and external food can be brought into the venue.BuzzWorks is SOMA's best craft beer &amp; full spirits bar, also serving wine, cider, kombucha &amp; more.
