About the event
Join us for an evening of music, networking, and firsts. Longtime Ann Arbor resident and game developer John Ardussi is launching his new production company, Gatebreaker Studios, with its debut album, All I Wanna Do Is Play Games.
The album is a precursor to Gatebreaker Studios’ first web series, Game Mechanics, now in pre-production. The comedy-drama follows the people of BrightByte Entertainment, a struggling game development company fighting to stay afloat while each wrestles with personal demons of their own. It’s a reminder that game development is not all fun and games.
Doors open at 7:00 PM for food and socializing, followed by an album preview, a Q & A, and an introduction to the web series and the opportunities it will hold for local talent.
Guests will receive a free copy of the CD and a goodie bag.
Local actors and crew are especially encouraged to attend.
