Hey everyone! I am a Concept Artist, thinking about going to this year's IGDC with the motive of building a network with other game devs and artists. I have never been to IGDC before, wondering if travelling to the event is worth it or not.

Is IGDC a good place to network for non-game devs like me, or are people mostly too busy showcasing their game and pitching it?

Also, do studios over there show any interest in looking at other game dev/artists work or not?

Would love to hear your personal experiences regarding IGDC, any help with the above questions is appreciated.
