🎮🔥 Game-A-Palooza – Fall 2025 🔥🎮
NYC’s biggest indie game showcase is here—and it’s your chance to play games before anyone else in the world. On Saturday, October 18, 2025, IGDA NYC takes over Hana House for Game-A-Palooza, a one-day festival built to celebrate and spotlight local game developers. Proudly sponsored by the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, this event puts the city’s creative talent front and center.
🕹️ Play 50+ New and Unreleased Games
From 12–5 p.m., get hands-on with over 50 brand-new and unreleased games from NYC’s most inventive developers. This is your chance to discover the next big thing before it hits Steam, consoles, or anywhere else.
Don’t just play games. Play them first.
