Game Prime was an Indonesia gaming exhibition focused on indie game. This exhibition was held in Balai Kartini Jakarta,28-29 November 2016 and was supported by Bekraf, Asosiasi Game Indonesia, and companies. This Game Prime was the first time experience for Karim, the game director of Sengkala Dev, attending a gaming event. Sengkala Dev was founded at 6 November 2015 as development of Pedalahusa Fall of Bali started. But at that time, Sengkala Dev only consisted of Karim and Raden Agung, the composer.
The motivation of Sengkala Dev at that time was still only for implementing history in game development and what is game development is still unknown to Karim. He barely knows the lack of game programming and 2D artist from Gamemaker Studio tutorials and forums.
He registered Gameprime in Dicoding, the programming course website that he newly learned and visited Balai Kartini on Wednesday, 28 November 2016. In this expo, it’s the first time he met directly many Indonesian game developers. It’s become a big milestone for him to know what is Indonesian game developers are.
