Our Communities
Boston Indies
Boston Indies is a community of independent game developers in Massachusetts supporting hobbyists, professionals, artists, academics, and anyone else interested in the craft of game creation.
Our goals are to:
• Foster a sense of community among Boston’s independent game creators.
• Encourage creating games independent of large budgets and major corporations.
• Serve as a brain trust among local independent developers and create a positive environment for learning and getting critical feedback
We are completely agnostic with respect to technology, development platform, game type, and scope of game development. As long as you show up with an open mind, helpful attitude, and you are committed to making your own games, on your own terms, you are welcome to join us.

Hello, World! BGDU Kickoff Meet and Greet
Cambridge Public Library - Central Square, 45 Pearl Street, Cambridge, MA, USWe are excited to announce the launch of the new Unreal User Group for the Boston Area! The Boston Game Dev - Unreal Group was formed under the Boston Game Dev nonprofit umbrella to be a meeting and discussion hub for Unreal Engine users based in the Boston / Massachusetts / New England area. This will be a space where we can share ideas, tools, projects, challenges, and accomplishments using Unreal Engine.
For this, our inaugural meeting, we are inviting anyone willing to come up and give a short lightning talk on your experiences with Unreal, what parts of the engine interest you, and what you would like to get from the group. We will have a projector set up if you would like to present a few slides to go with your self-introduction, but a presentation is not required to come up and introduce yourself to the group. We are looking forward to meeting you all, and the beginning of many more meetings and discussions to come!
