PhillyGameMechanics
Philly Game Mechanics is a project of CultureTrust Greater Philadelphia, a charitable 501(c)(3) trust supporting diverse cultural practices in the Philadelphia region. We focus on supporting and growing the game development and enthusiast community in Philadelphia. We provide events, resources and networking opportunities for artists, musicians, programmers and all sorts of creatives. We believe in providing a safe space for students, hobbyists, and professionals to create. We think that community visibility and collaboration provides value not only for the immediate community but to the whole city.
Philly prided itself on jamming every single month for 5 years then we burnt out and now its every other month! We've been jamming non-stop since 2014! Philly Game Mechanics is a twice-a-month event geared towards anyone interested in playing or creating games. Our goal is to bring folks from all over Philadelphia to make and play games together no matter who they are or what they do!
