In Brighton, at this very moment in time, the game dev community is coming together at Develop, to share experiences, info and ideas about games. A great time to be inspired by like-minded folks. But also in Brighton for the very first time, Gamerbake, the friendliest cooking themed gaming event in the world, held a bake-off competition. The theme for the Brighton even was ‘My Favourite Game’, and the results were outstanding.

The winner this time around was a lady named Leanne Bayley, from We Heart Dragons, with her Dark Souls inspired masterpiece. It truly is a majestic creation, with a decidedly sweet take on the despair of Lordran and I am gutted I have missed out on a piece.

There were so many delicious, calorie-stuffed sweet treats on show that it should be illegal. From PacMan themed chocolate chip cookies, to Kingdom Hearts cakes and many more, this was not only a celebration of cake, but a celebration of games.

Featuring some envy and drool-inducing entrants on the Gamerbake Facebook and Twitter accounts, the event raised £299.05 for the gaming charity Special Effect. 

Gamerbake is an extremely friendly cooking themed gaming event, which hosts baking events all over the UK, with the aim being to ‘Make friends, eat cake’. Working with its 2017 sponsor DingIt TV, Gamerbake raises money for their charity partner Special Effect.
