ICTP 324: Video game development, the benefits and opportunities in the Caribbean region

ICT Pulse Podcast - A podcast by ICT Pulse - tech blog and podcast - Wednesdays

Categories:

Although we have all played video games, video games developed by Caribbean developers appear to have little or no visibility. Moreover, there is no video game development industry in the region to speak of, and the underpinning ecosystem remains underdeveloped. However, by 2023, the size of the global video games industry is expected by valued at half a trillion US Dollars! We circle back to a 2021 conversation we had with video game developers, Glen Henry, of Spritewrench Studios, and Graham Reid, of GrahamOfLegend, where they discussed the state of game development and the potential and opportunities in the Caribbean region, including: *  the economic benefits for Caribbean countries; *  the region’s strengths and weaknesses; *  the business of video gaming development; and *  advice for individuals who want to get into game development.   The episode, show notes and links to some of the things mentioned during the episode can be found on the ICT Pulse Podcast Page (www.ict-pulse.com/category/podcast/)    Enjoyed the episode?  Do rate the show and leave us a review!     Also, connect with us on: Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/ICTPulse/  Instagram –  https://www.instagram.com/ictpulse/  Twitter –  https://twitter.com/ICTPulse  LinkedIn –  https://www.linkedin.com/company/3745954/admin/  Join our mailing list: http://eepurl.com/qnUtj    Music credit: The Last Word (Oui Ma Chérie), by Andy Narrell ---------------- Also, Sponsorship Opportunities!
