In this GDC 2018 talk, Sharkbomb Studios' Martin Nerurkar shows developers how to effectively showcase their game without a booth, no matter what conference they're at.
Nerurkar also goes over how devs can prepare themselves to make the most of their time on-site, as well as discussing what sort of games work well in a show environment, how to find and talk to an audience, and what kind of merch to bring.
It was an insightful talk that's definitely still worth watching, so developers shouldn't miss the opportunity to do so now that it's freely available on the official GDC YouTube channel!
