The Meet & Greet sessions are recreational, gaming, and learning events with various video game developers from the Caribbean Coast. They are aimed at anyone who wants to learn or strengthen (whether new or experienced) development processes within the video game industry from different perspectives (graphic, logical, sound, narrative, among others), as well as those who want to meet and connect with people who share the same passion
On June 14th, the Blazing Soft Meet & Greet sessions began. During the first session, we discussed the annotations proposed by John Mueller, focusing on his artistic direction for Diablo IV. These were further analyzed on June 21st during our second M&G, where we studied the five processes used by the BLIZZARD team that enabled them to commit to growing a shared vision in the development of one of the most important games in the Diablo IV franchise.
Finally, during our third Meet & Greet held on June 28th, we conducted the first interactive workshop where we discussed the applicability of the five pillars of John Mueller, the artistic director of Diablo IV, in the local and independent industry of Barranquilla. Representatives from some video game studios and participants had the opportunity to present their ideas and validate, alongside the community and experts, potential paths and processes to consider in the development of their projects.
During the month of June, we had the participation of 50 attendees, all of whom are involved in various facets of the video game industry and digital content development.
