GDLX25 IS LIVE!

Game Dev Local (GDL) has been proudly hosting GDLX for the past three years, and each year it just keeps getting bigger and better! GDLX has grown into the ultimate event for indie game developers and enthusiasts, bringing the indie game scene to life in a way that celebrates creativity, innovation, and community.

At its core, GDLX is about more than just showcasing incredible indie games—it's about fostering connections, sharing knowledge, and supporting the indie dev community. Each year, we curate an exciting lineup of games, talks, and panels designed to give attendees valuable insights into all aspects of game development, from design and programming to art and sound.

The event offers indie developers the chance to display their games, meet fellow creators, and connect with industry professionals. It's also a space where enthusiasts can discover new titles and hear directly from the passionate teams behind them.

One of the highlights of GDLX is our GDL Indie Awards, introduced to recognize and celebrate the exceptional talent within the UK indie game industry. These awards are a unique opportunity for developers to nominate their own work and be celebrated at our exclusive awards ceremony, which takes place just before our legendary industry after-party.

Whether you're a seasoned pro, a student looking to break into the industry, or an indie game fan eager to experience something new, GDLX offers something for everyone. The event isn't just about showcasing great games—it's about bringing the community together to learn, grow, and collaborate.
