This year the IGF competition is being showcased out on the main concourse. Because of this the finalists were able to set up and start showing off their games as early as this afternoon rather than when the Expo opened on Wednesday. This gave me the chance to catch several teams at their booth for photos before things exploded started tomorrow.

My apologies to teams I wasn't able to catch up with for a photo. In addition, some developers did not want their photos taken.
