During the last year, we noticed a lot of new Italian gaming resources: the Italian authors website ww.inventoridigiochi.it, the authors convention IdeaG/ GiocAutori (provided by authors Paolo Mori and Luca Coppola), the authors "press agency" project by Walter Obert & Andrea Angiolino... a very good year for our game designers!
The Italian authors had also good results in terms of published games: the new Italian companies working with them (daVinci, Rose & Poison, Nexus, Kidult, Red Omega Studio, Venice Connection / Studiogiochi...) had many international hits, like Wings of War, Viva in Re!, War of the Ring, Bang!, Coyote... and also our self producers (Emanuele Ornella, Angelo Porazzi...) went very well!
May we finally say that there is a gaming scene? We really would like to state that there is something like a "Gioco Italiano" idea, supported by many different authors, through many different gaming styles...
In this very positive panorama, there is only a question left: why there are so few women, in this "Gaming authors club"? Do the women have something better to do than playing?
