ITS Indie Showcase

A showcase of independent video games in Rome

The ITS Indie Showcase is an event dedicated to the world of independent video games, bringing the creativity of Italian indie developers to the heart of Rome, in the Pigneto district. Born from the initiative of passionate developers gathered around Reimei Studios, the event aims to bring creators and the public together for a single day to show as many people as possible the power of games created independently, often by small teams or solo developers.

The format: playable demos and meeting the developers

The heart of the event is the opportunity to preview numerous playable demos. Visitors have free access to the showcase areas and can move between the different stations, where each title is presented directly by its authors. It is a precious opportunity to speak face-to-face with those who design and develop the games, understand the creative choices behind each project, and discover unreleased titles before they hit the market.

• Free and open access to exhibition areas
• Playable demos of independent video games
• Direct interaction with developers at dedicated stations
• A space designed for the local game developer community

The venue: ITS Academy Lazio Digital in Pigneto

The event takes place in the spaces of the ITS Academy Lazio Digital, at Via Luigi Filippo de Magistris 13, just a short walk from the Pigneto metro station. This higher education technology school, specializing in information and digital technologies, provides its facilities, actively contributing to the growth and dissemination of independent gaming culture. Its location in Pigneto, one of the capital's most vibrant and creative neighborhoods, perfectly reflects the emerging spirit of the event.
