Lots to cover this week as Zack and Darcy tackle the wonderful slew of announcements from Gamescom 2024 and dive into the Melbourne International Games Week program! MIGW is running 3-13 October with so many events, from theatre shows to play-tests to educational workshops. Tune in to hear what we're keen for and if you see us there - say hey!
We're also talking game preservation as a new report from the National Film and Sound Archive, in collaboration with The Strong National Museum of Play and BFI National Archive, found that games are being lost to time. You can find the full report here: https://www.nfsa.gov.au/collection/curated/international-video-games-preservation
