Wednesday Workshops

Starting on November 1, 2023, we’re introducing a new weekly event.

Time: 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Join us in a dedicated room where members can work on their projects, collaborate with fellow developers, and enjoy a supportive atmosphere. We’ll provide snacks and run special events on various days to help add some variety to the workshops. Regardless of your skill level, this is a great opportunity to meet like-minded individuals passionate about game development.
