Another year, another awesome Queerness and Games Conference!

As always, the Queerness and Games Conference this past weekend blew me away. I want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who made the event possible. My special, infinite gratitude goes to my amazing co-organizers Christopher Goetz, Chelsea Howe, Diana Mari Pozo, Dietrich “Squinky” Squinkifer, and Zoya Street, pictured here in our matching Pikachu hats (we’re a very serious bunch) — and to all of those kind people who joined in the standing ovation at the end of the event, which made me feel amazingly loved.

Unfortunately, we don’t have video recordings of the QGCon talks this year, but if you’re interested to see who was speaking, we have a list of all the presenters and their abstracts. Lots of amazing games designers and scholars gave wonderful talks, including our keynotes Sandy Stone and Lindsay Grace. QGCon 2015 also featured a number of wonderful new games in our arcade. If you want to get into the festive QGCon spirit, check out these great photos from the event, taken by our wonderful volunteer photographer Dominic Dagradi. Of course, you can also find great tidbits in our @QGCon Twitter feed.

Thanks again, everybody! I can’t wait to see you at QGCon in 2016.
