The Detroit chapter of the International Game Developers Association offers a remote space for engaging discussions, sharing your work, and connecting with the thriving Michigan game development community. Typically held in Southfield at Lawrence Technological University’s campus, a remote format provides every attendee with access to the best conversation in the room. By supporting and guiding our community, the chapter strives to bridge the gap between students, professionals, and hobbyists as we create games big and small.
Chapter Offerings:
- Directed Discussions
- Show-and-tell opportunities to talk about your work
