Neowiz announced on the 19th that the indie game 'Hello Seoul: Itaewon Edition' will participate in the 'Beat Summit 2024(Bitsummit 2024)' held in Japan.
Bitsummit is an international indie game event in Japan that began in 2013, and was held offline in Miyako Messe, Kyoto, Japan for three days from the 19th to the 21st. It is hosted by the Japan Indie Game Association (JIGA) and features various attractions related to indie games such as game exhibitions, introductions, lectures, and panel discussions.
'Hello Seoul: Itaewon Edition' was selected for the support project of the Korea Creative Content Agency and participated in the event. As a project to support global promotion of domestic game-related companies with novelty and potential, Neowiz said that it was finally selected in recognition of its unique story unfolding in the world view of the end of the earth 'Hello Seoul: Itaewon Edition', the fun of 2D lateral scroll action, and pixel art graphic production.
A demonstration of the demo version of 'Hello Seoul: Itaewon Edition' was demonstrated at the Korean Joint Hall at the venue. 'Hello Seoul: Itaewon Edition' is a narrative-oriented puzzle adventure being developed by Jinho Kim, CEO of Gino Games, which released a demo version through the global PC game distribution platform Steam in December 2023. It signed a publishing contract with Neowiz in May and is preparing to launch Steam Early Access in the second half of this year.
