Florida Game Developers Association

Florida Game Developers Association is pleased to welcome Donald E. Llopis, Lead Android Developer on a Fantasy Sports app for a Fortune 500 company, and via monthly livestream from San Franciso, Ms. Elena Nizhnik, our assigned Unity Technologies Organic Evangelism Manager. Donald will talk about his experience working on indie and AAA games for Nintendo and National Geographic as well as his current work at a Fortune 500 company, one of the leading fantasy sports and sporting websites. https://www.linkedin.com/in/llopisdon/ Elena will talk to us about all things Unity and will listen to our feedback about future talks and presentations that we would like to see in South Florida (during mid-month meetups) as well as provide a forum for us to relay what projects we are working on how we can collaborate with Unity Technologies. http://twitter.com/elenaUnity3D After Elena's livestream we will do a brief Unity scene setup scenario as an appetizer before the main course of Open Forum Gamedev Talk where we make new friends, playtest one another's games and generally have fun. Here is the Zip file for the scene setup scenarios & four games we will be making over the next several meetups. They come from C# Game Programming Cookbook for Unity 3D and we have invited the book's author, Jeff Murray, to attend via livestream to answer our questions. Published by CRC Press in Boca Raton so we are supporting a local gamedev friendly business: https://www.crcpress.com/downloads/K18872/K18872_Web_Downloads.zip You can also come and just enjoy the atmosphere and work on your own game as a co-working space; home away from home with your Gamedev guild. We aim to provide a supportive, friendly, no-judgment zone where all opinions and personalities are welcome. During months when Elena is not available for a livestream we will provide a replacement Unity technologies employee (current or alumni). -------------------------------------------------- We have the large conference room rented from 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm but we can come as early or stay as late we want (24-hour location). Most likely we will be in the lobby by 6 pm and hang out in the outdoor Oasis area until 9 or 10 pm every month. -------------------------------------------------- All types of Pizza (including Vegan!) will be served, courtesy of Unity Technologies (Unity3D). -------------------------------------------------- Come meet with locals just getting into video game design along with veterans in the field. We discuss and demonstrate game creation engines. Feel free to bring any project you are working on to show off and also try other developers games. Our end-of-month Open Forum gathering is a great place to network and maybe find that artist or music composer you're looking for. -------------------------------------------------- Join our Facebook Group Florida Game Developers to connect with our members, get daily Game Dev news updates and more.
