No suits. No gatekeeping. Just pure connection, creation, and play.

​🗓️ HOW IT WORKS (AKA THE FUN PART)

​Once a month, we take over a space, roll out the snacks and drinks, and bring together the most creative minds in game development.

​🎉 Expect good vibes, real talk, and epic connections.
This time, with a spooky twist…

​🎙️ WHAT’S HAPPENING?
