Exploring New Partnerships in the Heart of Europe’s Game Development Scene

Earlier this May, Whimsy Games joined one of Europe’s most iconic gaming events – Nordic Game in Malmö. Representing our team was Alona Tymoshenko, our brilliant Business Development Officer, who came ready to connect, share, and caffeinate her way through a packed few days of industry magic.

From spontaneous hallway conversations to deeper coffee-powered discussions, the event brought together some of the sharpest minds in game publishing, development, and tech and Alona made the most of every moment.
