On the second day, more than 50 game development teams will participate in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam to introduce games developed by themselves. Starting this year, it will be converted to an open exhibition, allowing general users to submit games. Visitors can play exhibition games and exchange opinions with developers. Recruitment of exhibition participation teams will be received on the official website of 'Indivu' until the 20th of this month.
