There are a some important announcements about Polygons #11. First, it will be changing format, and second, it won't be recorded. Third, the University of Derby will be hosting an event earlier in the day.

Instead of the normal quiz, we'll be having a discussion on a single game, with some of the developers on hand to show work and field questions. Join the panel on May the 8th. Doors at 6 p.m., panel to start at 7:30 p.m.

Before that, from 5 until 7, the University of Derby will be opening their doors to game developers, with an exhibition of student work and tours of their facilities. You can download a flyer for that here .

Once again, Polygons will be in the SUB bar, at the University of Derby Kedleston Road Campus. Here's a google map , map of the campus , directions to it, and a floorplan . If you're driving, please park in the visitors car park. To get to the bar, just head into the atrium and past the shops.

Please note, the bar will be closed to normal student admissions - students wanting to attend should see John Sear for a wristband. Photos from the last Polygons we did there can be found here.

If you're not driving, the Unibus 6 service runs right to the university from the train station. We'll make sure to have some cab numbers handy on the night should you need them too.

This event is made possible by our sponsors Rare , Bluegfx, Autodesk , and CIN.

There will be more Polygons t-shirts in future. For now though, the last few of the first batch are reduced to $25 USD with shipping to anywhere.

As well as this mailing list, you can keep up with Polygons on the Facebook group and the website.
