Want to make a game but you’re not sure where to start or which engine to learn about?Join us for a game workshop on the 16th and 17th of May, where we’ll go through the fundamentals of the Godot game engine, build simple 2D games together, and look at different aspects of game development.
We are CLIMB, a new movement in Iceland’s game development scene that wants to help people find a path into games, whether you care about code, art, design, story, audio, or something else entirely.
No prior game development experience required. Bring a laptop and we’ll work from there.
Schedule
