Social
Many of our events are social gatherings, such as our Game Developer Meetups - our biggest recurring event which brings together up to 500 people each time.
Business
Games is also business, and we host a wide array of events to provide various business opportunities to studios and individuals in our community.
Knowledge
Professional development is key, so we regularly host guest speakers, experts, successful peers, and others to help game professionals hone their skills.
For studios and developers
Opportunities exclusively for those working in the game development industry. Provided by Game Habitat as part of our vision to create the best environment for game development. Updates regularly.
Give or get advice via our support network
The network consists of individuals from around the community who want to share their expertise, or get advice. Many want a bit of both. The network also provides excellent opportunities to grow your network within the community.
