GDC will also feature the 20th annual Independent Games Festival, the longest-running and largest festival relating to independent games worldwide, where original games compete for the attention of the publishing community, and the 18th annual Game Developers Choice Awards, the premier accolades for peer-recognition in the digital games industry.
