Casual Connect 2012 in Seattle was really big. It is really great to witness casual gaming market to grow so significantly year over year! Our team as always was attending several lectures and speeches. And during one of those sessions we were happy to see Sara Brooks from Facebook (Strategic Partnerships, Games) to be a great fan of Panda Jam! Nice to hear great stuff talked about game you created from the stage… Stay tuned, till the videos from the conference are published in couple of weeks. Meanwhile watch some pics from Casual Connect 2012 in Seattle.
