Brighton is the UK’s leading game development conference — a hub for technical, creative, and business conversations across all game development disciplines. Kevuru Games attends as a game art and production outsourcing partner.
Our team has participated in the Develop Conference 2023, which took place in Brighton, UK. The conference lasted 3 days, from July 11 to 13. As usual, there were many professionals and members of the gaming community who shared the industry’s values.
