Weird Worlds
Welcome to the Fringes.
Weird Worlds is a hybrid touring meetup and digital showcase dedicated to the projects that don't fit in a box. We celebrate the oddballs, the outcasts, and the "how-did-they-even-build-that?" creations.
Whether it's a dead genre brought back to life, a custom hardware hack held together by code and prayer, or a solo-dev masterpiece, we provide a home for it. Join us IRL on our tour or dive into our digital hub for:
- Alt-Control & Hardware Hacks: Breaking the interface.
- The "Everything" Indies: Achingly personalproductions.
- Tech Frontiers: Open-source engines, demo scene, and strange tech usage.
- Analog Oddities: Tabletop and unusual subject matter.
and much more..
Weird Worlds is more than a showcase; it’s a wind-down for the wonderfully strange. Come see what’s possible, you can join us for a cold beer, or from the comfort of your gaming chair, everyone is welcome from everywhere.

A huge thank you to Jimmy and Alice at the Loading Bar! They have always been incredible champions of the UK indie dev scene, playing host to all kinds of wonderful events, from indie co-working sessions and the London Indies Christmas parties, to IGDA London workshops and seminars.
We are incredibly proud to join that list as an event the bar supports and provides a home for.
You don't need to wait for an event to check them out, though! They have an amazing board game collection and a fantastic selection of gaming-themed cocktails and mocktails. Head on down and see for yourself!
