about us
We are building a community
for game developers and game designers in the Dresden area.
We invite you to join our diverse and colourful community of game developers in and around Dresden! We are gamers and techies by heart. Playing and even more creating new games are our passion. We are seeking exchange with likeminded people to share our learnings and become better by learning from others.
That’s why we build an active community within discord and meet regular in person. We will share know-how, ideas and learnings in a relaxed and personal atmosphere. Everyone, no matter wether you’re indie, employed, freelancer or student is invited to join.

28.01.2026 ab 18:00 | FH Dresden”Box art for games”
We’ll be meeting up after the winter break on January 28 for our first meetup of the new year. Your organizing team is really looking forward to seeing you all again in the coming year!
To provide some input, I’ll be giving a talk about box art in German, but feel free to request an english talk, so you can show your game in its best light at the next jam or even on a store page. Because whether it’s games, movies, albums, or even this post right here, cover art is often the first and sometimes only clue people have to decide whether to click or buy. Whether you want to hire an artist or do it yourself, this talk will give you the tools you need to understand how games convey their themes, content, and genres to potential customers.
Of course, in addition to the lecture, there will still be the opportunity to bring your own games or test games from the community. Thanks to the FHD for the rooms. We are really looking forward to seeing you and wish you a happy New Year and relaxing holidays.
