Eight Irish game studios to launch prototypes through IndieDev cross-border fund

Irish game developers’ ability to punch above their weight in the competitive international games industry, and turn ambitious concepts into playable prototypes, has been boosted by IndieDev 2025.

IndieDev 2025, a cross-border fund programme supporting indie video game developers in Dublin, Galway, Antrim, Armagh, Tyrone, Laois, Clare, Tipperary, Kilkenny, and Down, each received £15,000/€15,000 and 12 weeks of intensive mentorship to bring their visions to life.

Sharp Glass Games, Universe or Nothing, Reliable Plumbing Services, Space Lion Studios, Table Topple, Rúcach, Silly Goose Games, and Round Robin Interactive were the 2025 recipients of this pioneering programme managed by Galway-based Ardán and Dublin-based Imirt on behalf of Northern Ireland Screen and Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland.

The emerging developers were paired with industry mentors Dave McCabe (Spooky Doorway), Sam Redfern (Psychic Software), and Paul Froggatt (Outlier Games), who all shipped games to international markets last year and who brought their hard-won expertise to the programme.

From this, a variety of game prototypes have emerged, showing the diversity and creativity of the games development sector in Ireland: a hot air balloon simulator, a stealth-puzzle game, a meditative, cozy game, a roguelike strategy game, a 3D action-adventure platformer, a minimalist pinball-inspired perseverance platformer, a soft post-apocalyptic romance adventure visual novel, and a first-person, stealth exploration game. 

“IndieDev is the best thing that could have happened to us as a newcomer game studio,” said Sharp Glass Games Irina Kuksova. “Being on the programme was key for connecting with professionals who helped us to test assumptions, try new approaches and get a better understanding of the industry. The funds gave us time to work on the project, while the commitment to deliver sped up our work. We are publishing the Deathwish Bloom prototype next month and are looking forward to growing further.”

“IndieDev gave us the space and structure to turn Persevere from an ambitious concept into a working, playable game,” said Universe Or Nothing’s Mark Aherne. “The mentorship, workshops, and focused development time helped us validate our ideas, sharpen our design, and build a prototype we’re extremely excited about. It’s been a huge step forward for the project and for us as a studio.”

“IndieDev is a great programme,” said Colm Larkin, Imirt CEO and founder of game studio Gambrinous. “If something like this had been around when I started my studio 12 years ago, I would have jumped at the chance to take part. There’s a real sense of things coming together in Ireland for games right now.”

The momentum built by IndieDev’s success continues with Sparks: Game Changers, a pilot career development course for people of underrepresented genders in the games industry. Run by Ardán in collaboration with Code Coven and supported by Screen Ireland, the programme tackles the soft skills that directly affect career progression—confident communication, self-advocacy, and job-hunting readiness in an industry still shaped by bias and power imbalances.

Ardán and the Irish Games Industry:

Other games industry initiatives in Ireland run by Ardán included the annual FÍS Games Summit, a pivotal gathering for the games industry in the West of Ireland, attracting international speakers; the Galway branch of the Irish Games Talent Incubator; Run For The Border which mentors and nurtures game dev talent in the border counties; and the Galway Film Fair Games Event at Galway Film Fleadh.

Ardán was also one of seven Galway organisations awarded funding under The Communicating Europe Initiative, managing the GameDev Connect Europe development project strand. This brought together game developers in Ireland, Iceland, Greenland, Finland, and Sweden, highlighting how the games industry can work remotely and across borders, while also focusing on collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and community engagement.

Tech Review – Sharp XParty Street Beat (PS-949)

The Sharp XParty Street Beat (PS-949) is a large speaker that can get several jobs done at once and ideal for street parties and more hence the name and it is still portable too, given that it is not too heavy but it comes ready to move like a suitcase either way which is really handy. This is one of the biggest speakers I have checked out recently and it certainly makes a statement when it comes to sound let me tell you, if like me you have neighbours playing all kinds of rubbish on their tinny sounding speakers this one just comes out and takes over them all.

What is also cool with this is the lighting effects on it so it is no one trick pony and to add to it there is a mic built in and not is only that loud the speaker is loud and comes with some cool presets too which is ideal for the street party or if you fancy doing a bit of dj work and so on.

The speaker is well built and has several inputs and outputs on it too which is covered by a rubber flap on the rear, this is where you plug in the mic and it also has two USB – A ports and a regular 3.5mm socket, you can connect your device that way or via Bluetooth which is how I used it and is probably the best way, not only that you have an app to go with it which matches the top deck which is super cool and makes life much easier if you are in control of the speaker.

The controls are simple to use and laid out nicely on top with a disc type wheel for volume etc,, this gives you the real dj effect which I am not by any stretch but it is fun to use and the controls again straight forward and it is easy to switch between modes and sounds. Also up to is a spot to rest your phone or tablet.

The sound is excellent from this speaker and being big gives you big sound, the bass is excellent and the EQ settings are also excellent with a notable difference between them unlike other speakers I have tested asides the sound the light show it emits is also great which takes the boring effect from a speaker with no RGB effects, there was also no lag latency noted on this speaker and it certainly packs a punch when it comes to banging out the tracks and dwarfs most home speakers your neighbours might have.

Finally there is also around 13 hours of battery life so no matter where you go with it you have power on the go and it will last the day and you can charge your mobile phone with it too should you run low on juice.

The App

 

Check the full video review below for more and see how it works and most importantly how it sounds, you will take over any party in the home, back garden or street with this one.

#IFA2023 Sharp presents new air fryers and cordless stick vacuum cleaners

Sharp Consumer Electronics, one of the world’s leading technology companies, is expanding its Small Appliance Systems (SAS) business unit with two new product categories. With new cordless stick vacuum cleaners and high-quality air fryers, Sharp is expanding its comprehensive portfolio of premium household appliances.

Cooking the effortless way – with Sharp Air Fryers

Thanks to efficient technology, Sharp air fryers make it quick and easy to prepare crispy and delicious food with up to 90% less fat compared to conventional fryers – exciting for anyone looking to enjoy their favourite food in a healthier way! They are fast and economical in use, delivering excellent results in the shortest time and with less power consumption than a conventional oven.

What makes Sharp’s air fryers special? The answer lies in their sophisticated hot air circulation. This technology disperses the heat proportionately around the food at high speeds of up to 2,500 rpm, cooking it evenly on all sides – crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Whether baking, frying, roasting, or dehydrating, Sharp air fryers make cooking a breeze.

The structure of the frying pan enables hot air to reach the food from below, ensuring it is cooked perfectly all around. Both the frying basket and the frying pot have a non-stick coating that is easy to clean and dishwasher safe.

 

In addition, Sharp air fryers are equipped with a user-friendly soft-touch control panel and an easy-to-read digital display for program and temperature control. There are currently eight cooking settings programmed to adapt to different foods, such as beef, chicken, fish, potatoes, vegetables, bacon, chips, and pizza. The powerful heating elements allow for quick preheating and can even cook frozen food. The AF-GS552A model also has “reheat” and “keep warm” functions.

Less cords, more freedom – Introducing the Sharp Stick Vacuum Cleaner

Sharp’s new cordless stick vacuum cleaners are the result of years of research and development to help meet the needs and demands of consumers. The Power Duo Series is designed to optimise the cleaning experience and effectively rid households of dirt without obstruction or tangled cords.

Thanks to the highly developed vacuum motor and integrated H13 HEPA filter, the vacuum reliably eliminates dirt, dust and pet hair from floors, carpets, and furniture. In addition, the devices have up to three cleaning levels with different vacuum strengths, making them the perfect appliances for a deep clean. Thanks to the exchangeable roller head and different attachments, the stick vacuum cleaners reliably clean every surface and every corner of the house. The Ultra Duo Power Model (SV28) has a two-roller system (soft and spiral), marking it as the perfect cleaning companion.

The devices have up to 50 minutes of battery life, depending on the model; however, the battery life can be doubled thanks to the Duo Battery System. Users can effortlessly move through their homes without worrying about sockets or cable entanglements. The clever stand-up mechanism provides versatile freestanding in the room during the cleaning process without having to lean or place the device anywhere.

With their chic design and simple colours, the vacuums blend discreetly into the home interior. Thanks to the wall-mounted charging station, the vacuums are effortlessly and safely stored and can be easily accessed.

The newest model in the line-up, and big brother to the SumoBox, bulldozes past its peers to impress music enthusiasts and performers with its enhanced power and versatility.

A knockout performer: Introducing the new SumoBox Pro

Sharp SumoBox Pro (CP-LS200) delivers up to 108 dB of pure sound pleasure through its powerful 200W RMS stereo speaker system, with the 2x 10-inch woofers and 2x 3-inch tweeters delivering sumo-powerful beats. The SumoBox Pro’s wooden cabinet offers precise acoustics, and the angled design ensures optimal sound dispersion.

The SumoBox series by Sharp utilises technology from Devialet, the high-end French audio brand, on-boarding their SAM® (Speaker Active Matching) technology. SAM® by Devialet enables SumoBox Pro to produce a richer, more detailed and powerful bass with minimal audible distortion. Coupled with the unique closed box (unvented) design, the speakers precisely managed to reproduce audio as it was intended to be heard.

Hero on any stage: Multi-functional sound system for the perfect performance

The SumoBox Pro’s professional panel has three input channels for a variety of connection options, including TRS/XLR combo (2x) with reverb, bass and treble adjustment, AUX and a wireless Bluetooth connection, all with independent level control. Audio lovers can conveniently connect any mixer/keyboard, guitar, or microphone and set the optimum level at the flick of a switch using the instrument selector. The SumoBox Pro can also be wirelessly connected to another SumoBox Pro in Duo Mode for True Wireless Stereo (TWS) Bluetooth playback. Alternatively, the wired connection can be used to link multiple speakers together and share input sources. For gigs or events, the SumoBox Pro can be mounted with a convenient standard 1-3/8″ speaker pole mount on the bottom.

As tough as it looks: Robust design, perfectly adapted to all your needs

The black industrial steel grille gives the SumoBox Pro a robust and chic look, while the removable silicone corner protection balls provide an extra dose of protection during transport or while on the stage floor. The speaker can be placed vertically, horizontally or on a stand. The handles on the top and sides allow for easy transportation and set-up, and thanks to the IPX4 splashproof water protection, the SumoBox Pro is well-prepared for outdoor use.

Ready for the next round: Interchangeable battery pack and smart app control

The removable and rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack provides up to 8 hours of playtime and can be replaced with another battery pack within seconds, preventing interruption of playback. Alternatively, the SumoBox Pro can be plugged into a mains socket to power-on and recharge the battery at the same time. The speaker can also be controlled from anywhere in the room via the SharpLife app, adding to its incredible versatility.

Matt Sienko, European Product Director for Audio at Sharp Consumer Electronics, says: “We are excited to introduce another amazing speaker to the SumoBox range. With SumoBox Pro, we’ve succeeded in creating an affordable, high-performance portable speaker that will delight music lovers and become a trusted companion for performers all over the world. With potential for high quality, crazy-loud sound, tons of connectivity, indoor/outdoor EQ and splashproof housing, there are no limits for SumoBox Pro.”
