What we’re about
2.0
Ben and Austin have stepped down as the organizers of this meetup group. With the support of local game designer Ara Shirinian [E-Line Media], Theresa Devine [Associate Professor of Games @ ASU] has stepped up to keep this community going.
We believe the game developer community in the greater Phoenix area is vibrant and growing and would like to continue to support the game community in Arizona.
In 2021 we focused on the practical aspects of getting a game studio up and running and/or a career as an indie developer and organized a series of free workshops and meetups that will support you in pursuing your dream. This was too much preparation work for Theresa as she has a full-time job.
So.... In 2024 the focus is to provide monthly game jam opportunities. We are all here for the love of making games and it is important to get a chance to meet each other. The jams will begin in November and continue every month going forward. Hope to see you all there!
Toward the end of building our community we have recently established a Discord server. Here is the permanent link: https://discord.gg/25xPkNteWw
Feel free to join and share it with all of your friends!
