Grant Howitt and Mary Hamilton from Serious Business
Vampire Football
Serious Business run live games that don't take themselves too seriously; we like running, jumping, singing, shouting and getting people to act outside of the norm.
“Our mission at Serious Business is to make fun, accessible games that as many people as possible can play with as little lead-in time as possible: no tricky rules, no complex strategies, just lots of excitement and lots for the players to do. We draw inspiration from film and theatre and try to boil down narrative experiences into a series of quick events, and from cartoons as we apply a thin veneer of unreality over the surface of the world.”

There was a revolution in the UK of the late 1970s and '80s. Kids began making videogames on home computers, first in their bedrooms, and soon in offices across the nation, forging a new industry and some now-legendary games. In a new book published by Read-Only Memory called Britsoft: An Oral History, some of those makers, along with the journalists and businessmen that helped them form a vast new industry, recount their memories of Britsoft, a time of incredible creativity, imagination and commerce.
But now, some 30 years later, what was Britsoft? What does it mean today? Chaired by Alex Wiltshire, the book's editor and former editor of Edge, key special guest figures from the time will describe their experiences and perspectives, alongside some stars of contemporary British game development, charting the rise, the fall and the impacts of an unforgettable time in British history.

Bennett Foddy
No Nonsense Football
Bennett Foddy is the designer of several well-known games including QWOP and Get On Top, the trampoline-actuated wrestling game that debuted at GameCity in 2012. In addition, he teaches game design at the NYU Game Center in New York.
“A strong influence for me were the games made in the heyday of videogame athletics, like Summer Games and Daley Thompson’s Decathlon. In the 1980s it seemed like there was so much enthusiasm for Olympic sports, and this enthusiasm was joined by a wave of experimental creativity in game designers trying to capture those sports in digital form. I’ve tried to bring back those things in my work.”

History is littered with great rivalries, but perhaps none more nasty, festering, bitterly contested and pointless than Commodore versus Spectrum.
In one corner, eccentric UK entrepreneur Clive Sinclair and his rubber keyed, everyman computer for the masses; Facing him, the aggressive Shatnered marketing force of Jack Tramiel.
In 2013, the Spectrum triumphed, battering a weary Commodore into the canvas with a surprise final punch delivered by an experimental American indie developer.
In a dance as old as time itself these two punch-drunk, bruised old fighters have come out of retirement for a rematch.
Commodore vs Spectrum.
Choose your side.
This ends tonight.

Ricky Haggett of Hollow Ponds
Go Wide
Ricky is a founder of London-based gamedev studio Honeyslug (Hohokum, Super Exploding Zoo, Frobisher Says), as well as a founder of the playing-in-public organisation Wild Rumpus. He recently started a new studio called Hollow Ponds.
“I have a complex relationship with football. I used to play a lot - for my school and a local club, and of course 'World-Cup Willie' at lunchtimes (or World Cup Doubles in some parts). Then, aged 17, I ruptured the cruciate ligament in my knee playing right-back in very muddy conditions, gave up the very idea sport as a bad idea, and started to spend a lot of time in front of computers, which is most likely how I ended up making videogames for a living. I still have the odd vivid dream about playing in football matches (always in defence).
The rules for Go Wide came partly from memories of playing football at school lunchtimes, adapting the rules depending on where in the school we were. I was also thinking about ice hockey, where I like the fact that play continues behind the goal.”

A playful, interesting and educational look at the phenomenon of Minecraft in relationship to the mining history of the local area.
'Minekraft' (2015) is a new short film by artists Simon Raven, Beth Kettel, Bruce Asbestos and Tom Coogan. The film follows a group of Minecraft avatars as they go on an adventure in a real coal mine. Shot at Pleasley Colliery Museum, the film considers how mining past and present can create a strong sense of community.
During the day there will be a chance to view the artists’ new film 'Minekraftwerk' in which Minecraft characters explore an abandoned colliery in North Notts.
There’s the also the chance to go ‘creative mode’ with activities for everyone!
Exhibit your own avatar artwork, or help to construct a collaborative online version of the Pleaseley Colliery.

Selfish Football
Mike Bithell is the chap behind two reasonably liked British games, Thomas Was Alone and Volume. He is currently working on future, secret things. He'll probably tell you about them on twitter (@mikebithell) or on his site, www.bithellgames.com
“I used to love playing football as a kid, an aspect I enjoyed was the inter team politics of the thing. The hero scorers, the dependable defenders. When asked for an idea for a football redesign, I wanted to pull that element into focus, with team members having their own self interest come into play. Betrayal, manipulation, altruism, all manner of messy human stuff becoming the focus.”

Minecraft takes a playfully sinister turn in this special night time screening of Minekraftwerk, an artists’ collaborative film project that features dialogue from in -game characters set against footage of the Pleasely Colliery.
The event will feature live performance, audience collaboration, drinks and DJs with a special Minecraft twist!
Minekraftwerk is an artists’ collaboration project that looks at the relationship between the video game phenomenon of Minecraft and the decline of the mining industry, the wider shift to creative work from heavy industry and the impact on local community.

Llaura Dreamfeel
Frogball
Llaura Dreamfeel writes strange, wonderful and often intense games. She's best known for 'CURTAIN', the story of the destructive relationship between two women in a Glasgow punk band, and is currently creating the intergalactic feline adventure romance ‘SPACE|BLOOD'.
“I'm super inspired by punk and DIY attitudes to art. Works created so fast you can see exactly how they were done and the creator didn't have time to hide away the birthmarks and all of their own stubby fingerprints. At the moment I'm inspired in particular by the sensationally broken and the not quite understandable. When carefully crafted and authored affective experiences fail utterly at having an impression on you. So much so that you have no idea what the film, book or game wanted you to understand or feel, except that it REALLY wanted you to do so. When the music and the interaction and the art all jar unexpectedly. Perhaps you're in the middle of an epic fantasy adventure, your trusty party member has died and the music is telling you to feel very sad, but instead you discovered a glitch where you can walk away from this important conversation, and over the edge of the virtual world, falling into a digital void with bemusement as the tragic music loops forever.”

Simon Johnson
Thiefa
I'm a Founder/ Director of iGfest, Slingshot, a director/ designer 2.8 hours later and founder member of the pervasive media studio. I've been working as a real world game designer for 12 years now. Having had a hand on over 40 real world games,and sold more than 60,000 tickets to play, I have fairly unique and extensive experience.
“I have a real love of what I call ambitious forms. Things like monster comics, B-movies and gory games. I grew up on Star Wars and Sega. Then as a teen it was all about Tekken and Twin Peaks. At best these forms push the boundaries of what is possible. When they over reach themselves and become ridiculous for me it just exposes the scale of their ambition.
In the late 90's when companies like Blast Theory and Nottingham's Mixed Reality Lab started to combine games, physical play and urban exploration I took interest. Then in 2007 the New York based collective "Come Out and Play" really crystallised this kind of urban play when they started staging urban games festivals.
For the first time games that took place in the real world looked like they could be a form as ambitious as those I loved, but all the more powerful because of the immediacy of the experience. Add a dash of science and philosophy too and you've got games that have gore and meaning. Or perhaps that’s over reaching. :)”

This is a show about videogames, the people who play them and the people who make them. Each episode, a guest on the show talks about the games that have shaped their life in one way or another. Games that have inspired them, games that forged connections with others and games that have soothed wounds. Checkpoints!
To celebrate ten years of Gamecity, we'll be presenting a live show with a panel of guests talking about the year 2005, and the games that shaped their year and the decade ahead.

250 all-new, sing-a-long classics and a night in a private, irony-free universe where we’re all superstars and everything is amazing. If you haven’t joined the Marioke army yet, maybe it’s time?
Marioke is a night of karaoke classics rewritten to be about videogames. Perhaps that sounds like a joke and that’s how it began — a one-off show at Nottingham GameCity in 2011 — but now it’s a cult event with a monthly residency at the Loading Bar in London and an international army of boisterous, vocal fans. And when they’re not entertaining the capital, the One Life Left team take Marioke around the world, performing their ever-growing roster of songs with audience members at studios, conferences and parties
If you’ve never been to Marioke just imagine it as a karaoke night in an alternate universe; one where popular culture is entirely defined by games. The rules for each evening are simple, just like karaoke: sing your heart out, whether you can sing or not, and support the people on stage like they’re rock stars. Attendees pick a song from the songlist and sign up with the team at the front. When their names are called they come on stage with the Marioke team ready to back them up, and four minutes later they leave as heroes.
While there are in-jokes aplenty (“Hello” is about Halo, “Purple Rain” about Heavy Rain and “Common People” is a song about a PC gamer who wants to live life like Console People), the lyrics are broad enough to ensure you don’t need to be obsessed with videogames to enjoy Marioke. “I’m a Believer” is about Windows mainstay Minesweeper; “Take On Me” recalls platform classic Donkey Kong. Videogames are for everyone now and so, it turns out, are stupid songs and stupid jokes.
