Get ready for 10 smart devs to deliver incisive, rapid-fire microtalks at GDC!

Come to the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco next March and you'll be in the best place to meet and learn from the leading lights of game development, some of whom will be delivering some fantastic microtalks about cutting-edge industry topics.

For the tenth year running, the perennially popular Microtalks session is happening at GDC 2018! In "GDC Microtalks 2018: Playing with Fire," attendees will get a rapid-fire rundown of some of the most interesting and pressing matters in the game industry.

The microtalks concept is simple: each speaker gets 20 slides, every one of which is displayed for exactly 16 seconds before automatically advancing, giving each speaker a total of five minutes and 20 seconds to tell the audience about the best game design-related revelations they've had this year.

Not sure how they can pack ten talks into a single hour? Come along and see how it's done as nine great thinkers about games and play, alongside microtalks curator and MC Richard Lemarchand, give you a lightning-fast snapshot of the state of the art of game design.

Also, we have plenty more GDC 2018 announcements to make in the coming months. For more information about GDC 2018 visit the show's official website, and subscribe to regular updates via Facebook, Twitter, or RSS.
