We’re back — this time drilling deeper into the world of tech and tech art in Unreal Engine!
Whether you’re a technical artist, tools programmer, environment artist, or simply fascinated by the intersection of art and technology, this meetup is for you.
Join us for an evening of in-depth talks and practical insights into how tech and tech art pipelines power modern game development. We will talk about tech workflows, procedural tools, and the technical challenges that bring visual worlds to life.
There will be plenty of time to network, share ideas, and enjoy free drinks. Tickets are required (and yes, it’s still free!).
This event is hosted in collaboration between Ghost Ship Games and Unreal Developers Denmark, uniting two creative communities with one shared goal: to push the boundaries of what’s possible in Unreal Engine.
