Tokyo Game Show officials have announced several ways for independent developers to showcase at the September 19th-22nd event, including its annual Sense of Wonder Night (SOWN) experimental session and a new Indie Game Showcase. The Experimental Gameplay Workshop-inspired SOWN is now accepting free entries for its 2013 session. Antichamber, Incredipede, Q.U.B.E., Eufloria, and several other critically acclaimed, innovative titles have made an appearance in previous years. Instructions for SOWN entry are available on the main website, and the submission form is available here . The Indie Game Showcase offers two different spaces, the bigger of which is for its business days. Pricing ranges from roughly $200 for one day to $1,000 for four days, and space is limited to 50 games a day. Applications are available here . SOWN has typically been recorded and live-streamed every year. While it shows off to a room of hundreds, Tokyo Game Show proper sees traffic of over 200,000 annually. Full details on all exhibit choices are available on the Tokyo Game Show site . GDC China will also be that same week, September 15-17. Why not make an extended trip out of Asia? I sure wish I could! ...
