GaMaYo is a great place to show off what you're working on. There will be loads of screens at the venue (as well as a few huge screens) and all you'll need to bring is a HDMI cable, an extention cable and a device (tablet, phone, laptop) to play it on. To ensure you can show off your game please reserve a screen here ..NOW CLOSED

We're pleased to announce that Amazon Appstore is the Headline Sponsor for the Game Republic and GaMaYo events on 27th April. Amazon will also be running a GaMaYo competition on the night for the best mobile games with great prizes:

1st Prize - Fire TV 4k Box with Game Controller

2nd Prize - Fire HD 8 Tablet

3rd Prize - Fire Tablet

SO BRING YOUR MOBILE GAMES!

Once again we'll be supporting Special Effect - a charity that helps disabled people to enjoy videogames: https://www.justgiving.com/specialeffect (if you donate via that link and include a message mentioning "Ga-Ma-Yo #12" - Simon will give you a Special Effect wristband on the night. We'll also be accepting donations at the event).
