Acceptance rate: ca. 25% (https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3025453)
Prestigious human-computer interaction conference; getting into CHI is by some considered better than getting a journal paper published.
Acceptance rate: - depends on what you submit. In 2017 doctoral consortium acceptance was around 50-60% and the main programme was around 20-25%.
Used to be the little brother of CHI, now almost as hard to get in. Still very open-ended, with a strong focus also on serious games.
If your work touches on genetic approaches, this is a really good one to go for. Has a games track.
The Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO)
International Conferences on Computational Creativity (ICCC)
Acceptance rate: ca. 40%
Focus on the philosophy, evaluation and engineering of artificial systems that unbiased observers could deem creative. Pretty open-ended, great community.
International Conference on Game Jams, Hackathons and Game Creation Events (ICGJ)
International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI)
