We're just a couple of days away from the start of W.A.S.D., the new consumer videogames show coming to the Tobacco Docks in London, and if you're still on the fence about coming, we've got a couple of tricks up our sleeves. As well as a totally sold-out show floor, which will feature plenty of upcoming games from publishers like Devolver Digital and Sega, there'll also be plenty of networking opportunities for those looking to break out in the industry.

It can be difficult to make yourself heard these days, but through a series of talks at the PCGamesN theatre and beyond, you can come away with new career advice that'll get you on the path to success.

There'll be key takeaways from developers like Two Point Studio's Garry Carr, Mark Webley, and Ben Hymers, advice from the journalists over at PCGamesN, and Q&As with community managers, sound designers, UI programmers, and more. Over the course of three days, W.A.S.D will host 19 talks - all designed to better your chances of success.
