| 435s | much so we're both from Hamburg and |
| 438s | valtina and I had the pleasure to be |
| 439s | judges at the Hamburg prototype funding |
| 442s | so we look at this very very young uh |
| 444s | projects and I've been told we have a |
| 446s | few here uh at the show floor yes we |
| 449s | have a delegation from game City Hamburg |
| 451s | it's right around the corner shall we go |
| 457s | there we are at the game City Hamburg po |
| 460s | um there are five amazing games from |
| 462s | Hamburg okay I think we got to check |
| 464s | them out |
| 467s | then hi I'm Marcus I'm the solo |
| 470s | developer of Journey Beyond the Edge of |
| 471s | the world it's a first person Adventure |
| 473s | game that is set on a ship that was lost |
| 475s | at sea basically you try to figure out |
| 477s | who you are what happened to the ship |
| 479s | you do that by solving all kinds of |
| 481s | puzzles the story is said in the 1950s |
| 484s | and things get a bit surreal so there |
| 485s | are some sci-fi elements to it and yeah |
| 488s | it's a very atmospheric first person |
| 490s | game you can try it out here and on |
| 492s | Steam what do you need the most from |
| 493s | your fans definitely need wish list like |
| 496s | every Indie developer does so I'm pretty |
| 498s | early in the development uh there's a |
| 500s | pretty early demo playable now that |
| 501s | shows the mechanics and shows uh some of |
| 503s | the things that I'm trying to do with |
| 505s | the game but it's still early still a |
| 507s | ways off to the release but yeah wish |
| 509s | list obviously helped a lot in |
| 510s | visibility and just uh showing me that |
| 513s | what I'm what I'm doing is appreciated |
| 514s | so uh yeah wish list for |
| 518s | sure I'm Matilda and this is s he's the |
| 522s | artist and programmer and I'm the sound |
| 524s | designer of the game oada this game is |
| 526s | actually a music game so we're both game |
| 528s | designing it together uh it's already |
| 530s | out on Steam it's basically a Rog like |
| 533s | sort of Music Maker where you go through |
| 535s | different levels and build your own |
| 537s | music piece um then you can unlock new |
| 540s | gadgets that will allow you for even |
| 541s | more musical possibilities so it's |
| 543s | really an experimental winding down sort |
| 546s | of Music Experience so it was really a |
| 548s | friend like who introduced Matilda to me |
| 550s | because she's a sound designer but also |
| 553s | designing like the game design of the |
| 555s | game it's a very unique game I think I |
| 557s | don't know anything about music so it's |
| 560s | yeah tough to make a music game that way |
| 561s | yeah but I think that's also what makes |
| 564s | it cool I try to explain a musical |
| 565s | concept to Sven he's like I don't get it |
| 568s | but I have a vision in my head now so |
| 570s | then he invents a machine in aada that |
| 571s | sort of visualizes that in a way that a |
| 574s | musician would never do it so I think |
| 576s | the combination of these two worlds |
| 578s | makes it a really weird but unique |
| 581s | experience so you said the game is |
| 582s | already out is there anything you want |
| 584s | to say to the community uh make some |
| 586s | music with aada we have a cool Discord |
| 588s | server where people share the songs that |
| 590s | they make we have a song export so you |
| 591s | can export it as a wave file uploaded uh |
| 594s | people have been making really |
| 595s | interesting songs so if you want to be |
| 597s | part of that if that sounds interesting |
| 598s | go get it yeah go get it wish is always |
| 601s | good but go get it we like that much |
| 604s | better my name is Simone gral I'm the |
| 607s | marketing artist here and the story |
| 610s | behind us is that this is all done by my |
| 612s | husband he's been working on this game |
| 614s | for six years and two in fulltime our |
| 618s | game is an action RPG you come to a |
| 620s | little island there are parts missing |
| 621s | and it's sinking and there's so many |
| 622s | wonderful people on this island you |
| 624s | don't want to let them down so you take |
| 626s | it onto yourself look for the missing |
| 628s | parts and Rescue the island when the |
| 630s | people maybe they've lost stuff like |
| 632s | cats cat mom lost her kittens so even |
| 635s | stuff like that there is pressure to |
| 636s | rescue it but you can do it in a chill |
| 638s | way okay that sounds very exciting about |
| 640s | saving cats if anything in the internet |
| 642s | works is like cats saving them cute |
| 644s | kittens we do have also dungeons that's |
| 646s | like okay okay so there's apparently |
| 648s | also the dark side to this okay yes yes |
| 651s | Dungeons and cats that's a good one |
| 654s | that's a good K and cats we need that |
| 656s | what are the next steps for you we're |
| 657s | pretty far along but we can't give any |
| 659s | details yet so I'd be very happy if we |
| 662s | get some wish list for our wonderful |
| 664s | little game so please wish list |
| 668s | now so this is St up it's an action |
| 671s | party game you play with up to four |
| 673s | people in online or a local co-op you |
| 676s | have these little slimes that are swing |
| 677s | about the level and you have to absorb |
| 679s | them and then you can use the Ability so |
| 681s | basically you get a fire ability if you |
| 683s | absorb a fire slime or a water ability |
| 685s | if you absorb a water slime and then the |
| 687s | special trick is you can combine these |
| 689s | slimes together so water slime and an |
| 692s | air slime would then give you an ice |
| 693s | ability so it's all about finding these |
| 695s | combinations and which combinations work |
| 697s | best and then defeating waves of enemies |
| 699s | with these so I understand you're still |
| 701s | in development how far are you we're |
| 702s | currently working on the vertical slice |
| 704s | we're nearly finished with it yeah after |
| 705s | that probably going into a production |
| 707s | phase and we are calculating with 1 and |
| 709s | a half to two more years of development |
| 711s | time at the moment you can find it on |
| 713s | Steam and if you like it you can also |
| 714s | wish list |
| 718s | it hi hi I'm LA from the game mapmap |
| 721s | mapmap is a cozy exploration game with |
| 723s | cartography elements you play as a |
| 725s | cartographer and you are the member of a |
| 728s | little gang of adventurers and you |
| 730s | travel around a bunch of islands and you |
| 732s | map things on your map in the end you |
| 734s | can see how exactly you measured can you |
| 737s | give us an idea about the timeline for |
| 739s | the game yeah so right now we are in |
| 741s | early development plan to release a demo |
| 744s | around next year and then in about a |
| 746s | year we are planning to release the game |
| 748s | if you want you can wish list our game |
| 749s | on steam it really helps and you can |
| 751s | also join our community Discord if you |
| 753s | want you get a bunch of updates and you |
| 755s | can play G geoga challenges with |

| 762s | what else you do Beyond like the people |
| 763s | are showing here on the show floor yeah |
| 765s | our our aim is to like bring people to |
| 768s | network and we connect Publishers with |
| 770s | game developers and press and streamers |
| 773s | so we have our own booth reception we |
| 774s | have a teeny tiny um B2B area and um we |
| 779s | also try to facilitate like connections |
| 782s | like meaningful connections between |
| 783s | people but because we know a lot of |
| 785s | people our developers know a lot of |
| 786s | people and so we bring that |
| 790s | together it's good great to |
