This year's Austin Game Developers Conference is adding a nice twist to their event. It's not just gonna be about games, it's also gonna be about charity.
Yep, gamers who'd like to participate in the Austin GDC will not only be having fun by testing their skills as gamers, but will also contribute to a good cause by making a charitable donation. How? Simple. There's a US$ 20 entry fee for the Level Up Charity Games Competition, and everything will be donated to the ESA Foundation.
Marc Mencher, CEO of competition sponsor GameRecruiter, says this about their charitable deed:
We have a long-standing commitment to supporting the educational needs of minority and female students who are interested in being part of the video game industry. By providing this support to the ESA Foundation's Scholarship Program, we hope to allow deserving individuals to further their education and expand workplace diversity within our industry.
Scheduled for the September 17 competition feature titles such as:
- Rock Band 2
- Madden 08
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl
- I-Play Bowling
