Event: Look Behind You and Gameplan at the Level Up in Salzburg (Austria)
In addition to Amiga Future, the two German publishers Look Behind You and Gameplan will also participate at Level Up in Austria for the first time this year. Below you can read the translation of their official press release:

"Level Up is the first Austrian gaming and eSports festival that brings together recreational gamers, professionals, gaming fans, as well as creators and stars of the scene in an experiential atmosphere to experience new trends and celebrate their shared passion. But retro computing will not be neglected either: in a separate retro area, those interested can experience historic computers live.

The two German publishers Look Behind You and Gameplan will be taking part in Level Up for the first time this year. At the joint booth, the two publishers, who focus on video game culture and retro technology, will offer their complete book program, including 'Spielkonsolen und Heimcomputer 1972-2022', 'Die Geheimnisse von Monkey Island', 'Atari: Kunst und Design der Videospiele' und 'Die Kunst von Assassin's Creed Valhalla'. Publishers Winnie Forster (Gameplan) and Nico Barbat (LBY) will be on hand throughout.

Visitors will also be able to play through the adventure game 'The Secret of Monkey Island' on an Amiga 1000 at the joint booth of LBY and Gameplan. A special exhibit will be the rare Vectrex game console, released in 1982, which visitors will also be able to try out for themselves. Revolutionary at the time, the device from General Consumer Electronics features a built-in vector screen and is often referred to as the first 'truly portable' game console.

There's something for everyone at Level Up, whether you're a hobby gamer, eSports pro, cosplayer, retro fan, indie aficionado, card gamer, tabletop player or game-loving family. Particularly successful program items from previous years will be back this year. Among others, the Level Up Icarace World Championships, the high-class Rocket League tournament Morekats Mayhem #4, cosplay action in cooperation with Animix, tabletop and card gaming in cooperation with Gamers Finest Salzburg and CardArena, a drone championship, as well as a charity stream to raise money for charity. There will also be a separate FSK16+ area, where players and orgs will battle it out in tournaments without youth clearance.

Level Up will take place from July 1 to 2, 2023 at the Messezentrum Salzburg. Tickets are available in advance and at the box office. To ensure that this year's event is once again a pleasure for the whole family, visitors under 16 pay a reduced price, while children under 12 attend the event completely free of charge." (snx)
