Not every video game is blessed with a development staff of hundreds, a multi-million-dollar budget and a crack marketing team. For all those tiny games created without staggering sales numbers or worldwide critical acclaim in mind, Montreal experimental game collective Kokoromi has created GAMMA, a one-night-only party giving the little guys and girls a chance for their five-minute masterpieces to shine.

In the three years Kokoromi has held the annual showcase, every edition has forced eager independent game developers to create a five-minute, easy-to-learn game based on a chosen theme. The six titles chosen this year made stereoscopy—the red/blue 3D effect featuring those cumbersome paper glasses—integral to the gameplay.
