We are pleased to announce our second keynote speaker, Lisa Brown!

Lisa Brown is an independent developer and the current Game Designer in Residence at Harrisburg University. She was formally a game designer at Insomniac Games and a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University’s Entertainment Technology Center. Since going indie, she has released several experimental personal games (Imaginal, Lisa vs. the Tornado) and livestreams game development and game design analysis to help others get better at making games. Lisa loves advising students, participating in game jams, and exploring alternative control schemes for games.

Lisa has a pretty awesome website, where you can check out her games and Patreon and see all of the cool stuff that she’s into.

We’re super excited to have Lisa joining us for Vector this year! Remember, you can buy your tickets still for early bird pricing until February 15!
