Do More of What You Love: Practical AI for Game Development

Join us for an exciting evening with UnityNYC as we dive into the world of Practical AI for Game development led by Mike “Mikey Ace”. Mikey is a game developer, 3D artist, mentor, educator, and Unity Certified Professional Artist specializing in immersive experiences in Meta Horizon Worlds. He is also a two-time grand prize winner of Meta Horizon competitions and co-organizer of the UnityNYC community.

Event Details:
AI is transforming game development in many ways: from production and art to coding and marketing.
I know this makes a lot of developers uncomfortable. But I can show you how to use AI tools thoughtfully, not to replace your creativity, but to handle the work you dread so you can spend more energy on the work you love.
We’ll walk through practical use cases for designers and producers, artists, and coders, covering everything from GDDs and pitch decks to mood boards, sketch workflows, marketing copy, boilerplate code, and plain language planning.
Every step of the way, you’re still in control.
This workshop offers practical guidance and tools for developers at any level. If you want to learn ways to use AI without losing what makes your work uniquely yours, this session is for you.
