Develop Live: Learn how to choose your career path… from a puppet owl

New and aspiring games developers stand to learn from all of our 25-plus speakers at next week’s Develop Live conference – and that includes a puppet owl.

In a talk catchily titled ‘Hoots Mon – finding your way in an increasingly diverse games development marketplace… with a puppet owl’, Ground Shatter founder James Parker will discuss the pros and cons of every possible level to your games development career.

He will also touch on the early stages of going ‘full indie’ and talk about how devs can cope with the changing face of games development.

And he’ll doing all of this in his own unorthodox way: with a Powerpoint presentation and a puppet owl. Yes, you read that correctly.
