The Asmongold-owned, Twitch streamer-operated OTK organization has run it's first (of hopefully many to come!) Games expo's! The goal of which was to showcase the independent and smaller-sized video game creators that sometimes get lost in the noise of the games industry.
I think they've done a great service in taking a games showcase of independent games seriously, and have given these small devs a massive platform to show what they can do! What did you think of the show? Let us know in the comments, or leave us a voicemail! Thanks for checking out Video Game Tango!
