Lightning Talks

Presented by Technically Games & IGDA Melbourne

---------------------------------------------------

Do you have a passion for the niche parts of game design - the tools, processes and research that help to build the whole?

Is a deep-dive into the technical nitty gritty across art, programming, security - and more - right up your alley? 

Then you've come to the right place:

If it's niche, nifty and nerdy - expect to hear about it!


Lightning Talks is an evening for professionals, solo devs and students alike to share in the specifics behind game development.

You'll get to enjoy a selection of bite-sized presentations - each under 5 minutes - on all sorts of technical topics, along with time to chat and connect with like-minded folks.
