NOVA Game Developers

Hey, (after a long hiatus) this meetup is finally awake! Join local video game developers, artists, musicians and writers to talk about the art and science of game development. Bring a device and demo your game, talk shop, find like minded folks to join forces with, have a snack or a beverage among new friends. We are an informal meetup where we share what we've been working on and socialize. Come for all or just a bit of the time!

Location: Tysons-Pimmit Regional Library (Virginia) Conference Room

A game development Working Session involves 3 key parts:

1. Tell people what you're going to do
2. Actually do stuff
3. Show people what you did

That's what we'll be doing for this meeting. We'll briefly tell each other what we're going to do, then work on our projects, then at around 4:30 wrap up to show each other what we did and chat for a bit.

You don't have to stay the whole time, so feel free to drop in and out as you have time.

All game development skill levels welcome. Whether you're bringing a game you're trying to ship in a month, or you're just planning on following some tutorials or trying out a new tool to improve your skills, use this time to make progress.

Working sessions also train you to think about the scope of your work: pick a chunk of work that you can complete in the time that we have. That way you can end the working session with a feeling of accomplishment!

What to bring: Laptop, Charger, maybe a power strip if you have one handy, any other game development tools you need. Try to download any software you need before the working session. There is Wifi at this location, but it may be slow if you have to download any large files.
