Checkpoint Meetup @ Braga | September 2026

​🎮 IGDA-PT Checkpoint
Checkpoint Unlocked: Guria! Coffee Spot, Braga

​Hello everyone!

​We are organizing the next IGDA-PT Checkpoint, a simple and informal hangout for the game dev community.

​In games, a checkpoint is where you pause, save progress, and continue the journey. That is the idea here too.

​After unlocking checkpoints in Porto, we are now unlocking a new point on the IGDA-PT community map, this time in Braga, at Guria! Coffee Spot.

​No talks, no stage, no big programme. Just a relaxed moment to meet other game devs, catch up, talk about games, projects and ideas, and keep the community connected.

​The idea behind IGDA-PT Checkpoint is to have a lightweight format that can happen in different places, such as a bar, a coffee spot, a park, a museum, or wherever it makes sense to bring the game dev community together.

​The space is open to the public and not reserved exclusively for us, so this will be very informal and easy-going.

​Come by, unlock the checkpoint, and help us keep the game dev community connected.

​📅 Date: Saturday, September 19
🕡 Time: 18:00 - 20:00
📍 Location: Guria! Coffee Spot
R. dos Chãos 92, 4710-230 Braga, Portugal
