Technically Games is an online, community-run event designed to sit alongside and augment the time honoured game development conferences already happening in Australia.

We aim to provide a platform for all things technical in games: programming, art, security, and more. Our focus is in the craft of making games, from engines that make things run, the animation that breathes life into characters, and everything in between.

Tickets are free and available on Eventbrite.

Adaptability

We can all relate to adaptability – in the last year, Covid has displaced many workplaces and we’ve had to create solutions for communicating online, meeting through Zoom, and implementing remote-friendly processes.

Adaptability can come in many forms, and we want to celebrate all the ways that you and your teams have been able to come up with new ways of doing tasks and finding new solutions. We’re all adapting in different ways, whether it’s striving for equality in the workplace, having to learn new tools & programs as technology advances, or adapting to shifts in the gaming industry and following market trends, platforms, genres and changes in player behaviour. We’re all starting to get familiar with the idea of changing, so why don’t we pause for a second to discuss and recap some of the best ways we have found in doing so. We’re looking forward in having you with us and joining in the conversation during NZGDC21.

GCAP 2019

Event Date

This year’s GCAP theme, Lighting the Way draws on the age-old symbolism of a light to guide us home through turbulent waters. There are undeniable risks and submerged dangers in the pursuit of game development, but the steady light from the lighthouse reminds us that it’s always possible to find a safe harbour. Join us for GCAP 2019 as we explore this concept, working together to find the best way forward for our industry.

Now in its 14th year, GCAP remains a community-based conference strongly focused on up-skilling the Australian game development industry. For the first time since it’s return in 2010, GCAP will take place over three days rather than two. 

The event will comprise of talks, panel discussions, networking opportunities and workshops from a variety of talk tracks for; design, art, animation, community, culture, business, games-adjacent and programming.
