Another year of @gdocexpo.com completed, and I think this was one of our best yet. Stellar games for our Direct showcase and Sale, and phenomenal talks. It was a honor to get to help lead as Head of Curation this year.

So proud of the team, all our participants and community. So, so good.

A screenshot of Josh hosting. The overlay is titled "GDOC EXPO: Josh Boykin, Head of Curation and Host". A Black man with salt and pepper (mostly salt at this point) hair stands in a room wearing a black-and-red sweater (It's a Miles Morales sweater, lol). On his left, a black curtain. Behind him on the left, a silver and gold picture with three bears gathered around a laptop. Behind him on the right, a blue-and-orange painting. On the right, a Daft Punk poster of a head in a helmet, half-silver, half-gold.

Sequence art from our game, Cakeswitch!
Opening the puzzle ->the puzzle-> solved

The designs were really fun to do; each area has a different kind of cake. We went with ice cream cake for the ice region, of course.

My submission to OST Composing Jam Crunchtime 04!
The theme is freedom so I went for a jazz style because what’s more free than improv?
Hope you give it a listen!
