Come Meet ROBLOX at GDC 2013

GDC 2013 LogoThere’s been a buzz within the game industry — ROBLOX HQ included — over the past few days’ lead-up to Game Developers Conference 2013, which kicked off today in San Francisco. The self-proclaimed largest and longest-running professionals-only game industry event brings together programmers, artists, producers, game designers, audio professionals, business decision-makers and others involved in game development to exchange ideas and shape the future of the industry.

ROBLOX will be manning a booth at GDC 2013 from Wednesday through Friday. Our primary focus will be meeting potential candidates to join the ROBLOX team, but we’ll also be there to talk technology and demonstrate cross-platform gameplay with our internally developed ROBLOX Battle game running on laptops and iPads.

If you have serious skills, you can enter one of our daily tournaments for a chance to win an Amazon gift card.
