    Double Fine is gathering some of its indie friends together next month for an event called Day of the Devs, a public showcase in San Francisco that will see Double Fine, Tribute Games, Gaijin, Capybara Games, Supergiant, Honeyslug, iam8bit and Chris Hecker in attendance. "It all started with us just wanting to show Broken Age to our backers and fans," Double Fine brand manager Greg Rice told Joystiq during a phone interview. "And we knew that if we were going to invite those people out, we were going to need a larger space – so we figured if we had the space, we might as well invite some of our friends to show their games." Day of the Devs was concocted as a simple gathering that wouldn't force developers to plan and detract from their own development schedules, Rice went on to say. Developers just show up and demonstrate what they've been working on to anyone willing to attend.
