Seattle Indies Social

This very special Social is sponsored by Unity! See more on that below.

Also this Social is on a WEDNESDAY, May 17th, to not conflict with the Pocket Gamer Connect conference that's in town.

We're back to Optimism with this month's Seattle Indies Social!
Catch up with old friends, make new ones, and find out what the community has been up to.

We have half of Optimism booked. It is a very large brewery with tall ceilings and large, open windows, which helps both with ventilation and noise reduction.
