Welcome to Retrogamingbcn!
Hello retrogame lovers!
We are excited to start this blog and we wanted to start by explaining our project: Retrogamingbcn.
The idea
Our dream is to create a community that fosters new ideas emerge from the retro gaming topic. We are trying to provide, through events, the knowledge, network and the right environment for naturally promoting new conversations and collaborations between retro gaming enthusiasts.
One example of this successful format is the recent collaboration between Protopixel and the pixel artist Iñaki Diaz Acedo: together, they brought pixel art to another level by conceiving LedXel, a led hexagon used as a dynamic canvas that, during our last event, showed a loop of an animation created by Iñaki.
We also organize workshops for learning the basics of game development and game design and events where we invite field experts to share their experience and knowledge.
Now, with this blog, we aim to reach a bigger, digital audience, and grow our community.
Retrogamingbcn is for us a side project but this doesn’t mean that we don’t put all our efforts into bringing something valuable to the retro gaming community.
We have several potential initiatives in mind(game jams, exhibitions etc.) but we are always looking for suggestions and collaborators!
Feel free to drop us a line at hello@retrogamingbcn.com !
May the pixel be with you! 👾
