LIGHTNING TALKS!
Boston Indies and Women in Games Boston will be co-hosting virtual lightning talks!
If you have a short (5 - 10 minute) presentation you'd like to give, please fill out the form below and we'll get back to you with more details about presenting when we have a list of talks. If you haven't given a talk before, lightning talks are a great way to get some practice presenting!
FORM: https://forms.gle/Ak3QitrkkPSR3wQ47
Some topics that we'd love to hear about:
- Cool development tools
- Novel Unity/Unreal/GameMaker/Whatever techniques you're feeling right now
- Fun development anecdotes
- Handy work from home team building/management/production techniques
- What are you working on right now? Is it cool?
Once we've collected enough responses for an evening of programming, we'll be in touch with details about logistics.
Thanks!
