    ST CATHARINES, ON, June 21, 2024 /CNW/ – CGMagazine Publishing In. has just finished up their Game Con Canada coverage with the Game Con Canada Indie Game Awards.

    After a stint at Computex 2024 in Taipei and  Summer Game Fest 2024 in Los Angeles, CGMagazine headed out west to cover games on their home turf. Game Con Canada is Canada’s largest dedicated gaming expo in Edmonton, Alberta. The show floor featured everything from tabletop games to AAA games to the latest tech from BEACN, Razer, Intel, MSI, HP and more. Most prominently—and perhaps the busiest areas—were the multiple indie game stations set up across the Edmonton Expo Centre.

    CGM chatted with more than 20 indie developers about their games over the three-day Game Con Canada expo. After careful consideration, CGMagazine was able to honour five indie games/studios with awards across five categories, with the following winners:

    There were so many amazing indie games and booths to check out, but the GCC Mega stage was a true sight to behold, featuring talks from major celebrities like Karen David, Ray Fisher, Avori Henderson, Deborah Ann Woll and Mark Meer. There was something for everyone on the main stage and beyond.

    Game Con Canada will be returning to the Edmonton Expo Centre in 2025, and CGMagazine will be on hand for all your gaming expo coverage.
