Indie games that capture your imagination like Canabalt, Sword & Sworcery and Beat Sneak Bandit seem to come out of nowhere sometimes. But, in the case of other ambitious titles, like Mark Essenâs Nidhogg or Terry Cavanaughâs At a Distance actually get commissioned by New York Universityâs Game Center for their yearly No Quarter exhibition.

Announcing the 3rd annual No Quarter Exhibition! This yearâs show will premiere at 7pm on May 18th at the NYU Game Center and feature four brand new games!
The mission of the Game Center has always been to foster new perspectives and groundbreaking game design. To that end, each year we choose innovative and artistic game developers, support their new projects, and display their games during the exhibition. Past commissions include Mark Essenâs Nidhogg, Robin Arnottâs Deep Sea, Terry Cavanaughâs At a Distance, and Ramiro Corbettaâs Hokra. This yearâs No Quarter continues that tradition with games that experiment with and celebrate the art form, featuring new work from:
â Zach Gage, creator of SpellTower and Bit Pilotâ¨
â Jan Willem Nijman, co-creator of Super Crate Boxâ¨
â Margaret Robertson, game designer at Hide & Seekâ¨
â Noah Sasso, creator of Miracle Adventures in 2113
