– 7/20 (Thu) ~ 8/9 (Wed), 21-day demo day on the BIC official website
– Online/offline early bird tickets available from July 20th
Busan Metropolitan City (Mayor Park Hyung-Joon), Busan Information Industry Promotion Agency (Director Jeong Mun-seop), and the Busan Indie Connect Festival Organizing Committee (Chairman Seo Tae-gun, from now on referred to as the BIC Organizing Committee) are organizing the Busan Indie Connect Festival 2023 (BIC Festival 2023, from now on referred to as BIC Festival 2023). It was announced that the demo day would start on the 20th.
The ‘BIC Festival 2023’ Demo Day will be held on the BIC official website ( http://bicfest.org/) from July 20th to August 9th. Demo Day is a pre-boom-up period before the final event and can be seen as a pre-preparation stage to display a perfect game.
During the demo day, general visitors can check the list of games to be exhibited. Visitors are expected to have higher expectations and interest in online and offline exhibition viewing through various game lineups and opportunities to look at attractive games.
It is worth paying attention to the ‘Big Connectors 3rd’ activities during the Demo Day. ‘Big Connectors 3rd’ consists of participants who have a genuine affection for indie games and BIC festivals more than anyone else and play the role of delivering feedback to developers through playing exhibitions and writing reviews.
It is expected that this will help developers enhance the perfection of their work by serving as a guide in the final preparation stage before meeting the audience. Visitors will likely be able to meet more complete games at the BIC Festival 2023 through these preliminary activities of the ‘Big Connectors 3rd’.
This ‘BIC Festival 2023’ is expected to showcase the enormous scale ever, with about 200 exhibited works. Expectations for the games displayed at this year’s ‘BIC Festival 2023’ are growing, as the number of applications for participation is renewed every year and has become a representative indie game festival.
BIC Festival 2023 will hold an online exhibition on the BIC official website from August 17th, and an offline event will be held at BEXCO in Busan on August 25th. Online and offline exhibition viewing is only available to ticket holders, and tickets can be purchased through the BIC official website ( http://bicfest.org/ ) from July 20th.
