BostonFIG is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organizationon a mission to celebrate independent game development in New England, across the country, and around the globe.
Their goal is to create an inclusive environment for everybody who enjoys and appreciates games in any shape or form. The organization seeks to support and showcase the efforts of independent game developers, as well nurture young aspiring game creators from diverse backgrounds.
