Stevie Ward is speaking at the following session/s
The Final Countdown & Indie Showcase Winners Announced
End your Develop 2025 on a high (or at least a very weird note)...
Join us for a Taskmaster-style showdown featuring:
🎮 Video game trivia
🧠 Puzzling nonsense
💥 Physical challenges of questionable purpose
🏆 Prizes include actual items (Develop passes) and concepts like ‘smug satisfaction’ and ‘mild regret’
The Rules?
They’re made up on the spot. But we can confirm that fire beats leaf beats water beats fire. Expect that logic to settle more than one argument.
Your hosts, Stevie Ward and Jon Torrens, will be your gloriously biased BOSSES. Will they be fair? Or petty? Only the fates (and their caffeine levels) can say. They’re easily bribed, too. And vain.
Expect:
✔ Tomfoolery
✔ Shenanigans*
✔ Silliness
(*the value of shenanigans may go down as well as up)
Also: There’s beer. Which probably should have been the first bullet point.
Will you survive the madness?
Of course you will*.
