EVE Online Developers in Finland

Two developers from CCP working on EVE Online will be attending the combined Finncon-Animecon 2008 on 26th and 27th of July in Tampere, Finland - and yes, that's next weekend. Chantal Zuurmond (Game Designer - EVE Online) and Grétar Hannesson (Software Engineer) are scheduled to host a panel "EVE Online - Builders of Virtual Worlds".

Not only novelists create worlds - videogame developers create complete universes, that live and change 24 hours a day - in the hands of tens of thousands of players.

Creators of EVE Online introduce us to the game, continuing into a discussion on how fiction is used within EVE, how historically fiction was made fit the game systems and how we are moving towards building systems based on the fiction. How the backstory develops, evolves as the game goes on and what purpose fiction has within the game world.

And that's not all - there will be plenty of other interesting program, including a panel on World of Warcraft and a presentation by the authors of Star Wreck on their next movie project - Iron Sky.
