Upcoming Talks

Last week, we had Evan Todd come talk with us about his work as a solo dev and his game-in-progress, Deceiver. He just launched a Kickstarter today – check it out!

This Wednesday, Cody Starcher from Multivarious Games is coming to talk to us about their game, No Mercy, and his role as a producer. If you don’t know what a producer does, that’s okay. Come find out!

Finally, we have local developer and creator of Soda Dungeon, Shawn Tanner, coming to talk with us on the 28th. Make sure you come out to meet and learn from these local devs!

September Wrap-Up

Hey everybody! We have a lot to talk about!

Game Jam: You can now find your games available to download from our Games page. We were so impressed with everybody’s work (especially our newcomers) that we gave out the first-ever GCC Awards:

Shiny!

GDEX: Last weekend, we were at hard at work playing  showing off your games and setting up some cool future events.

Thank you so much to everyone who volunteered! We couldn’t have done it without you.

T-shirts: Did you order a shirt? You can pick it up at a meeting! They’re $10, and we can accept cash or Venmo.

Moving forward: We’re gearing up to start some long-term projects. At our next meeting (10/11), we’re going to continue brainstorming, start solidifying project teams, setting up Discord channels, etc.

We can’t wait to see what you make! We know it’s going to be great.
