Conventions such as Salt Lake Gaming Con is an event for those in the industry to learn, network, and exchange ideas with their colleagues and showcase new games. While many of the major cons in North American are tailored for AAA blockbusters, SLGC fits a niche for indies. Bigshinyrobot.com was there to cover the event and to gain some insight from professionals in the industry. We found a slew of titles that were incredibly fun to play and gorgeous to look at. This years Salt Lake Gaming Con was a blast, so you know we’re already looking forward to the 2020 edition of the show.
