On Wednesday, April 1st, Chaud Games is organizing a Playtest Night at Werkhuis, and everyone is welcome! During this evening, anyone can bring their own game or prototype to test each other's creations. You'll receive targeted feedback from peers, which can be extremely valuable for refining your project. Additionally, you can play others' games and prototypes and provide feedback to the developers. This way, we learn from one another and elevate each other's projects to a higher level. When? Wednesday, 01/04, 18:00 – 21:00 Where? Molenstraat 5, Genk How much does it cost? Admission is free! Bring your game or just come to test and provide feedback. Everyone is welcome!

Meet ’n Play is a monthly game event held at Textielhuis in Kortrijk, taking place on the first Wednesday of every month. The event brings together gamers, game developers, and people from the local game industry in an informal and welcoming setting. Visitors can playtest upcoming games from local developers, discover new projects at an early stage, and connect with others who share an interest in games and game development. Developers are invited to showcase their work and gather valuable feedback, while attendees can enjoy a drink and casual conversations throughout the evening. Whether you’re a gamer looking to try new games, a developer seeking playtesting and networking opportunities, or simply curious about the local game scene, Meet ’n Play is open to everyone.

The Game Dev Afterwork is a monthly meetup open to everyone—whether you’re part of the video game industry in Belgium (professionals, students) or simply curious to discover it. By default, we meet on the second-to-last Friday of the month, starting at 5:00 PM, in a friendly, welcoming, and pressure-free atmosphere: just come grab a drink after your work week, chat, meet people, and unwind with fellow devs and enthusiasts. 📍 New: We’re back at "W" (ex- L’Atelier de La Manufacture Urbaine) in Charleroi: https://wcharleroi.be The restaurant offers a “Give Me 5” deal on Fridays before 6:00 PM, with a selection of tapas and cocktails for just €5. This will, by default, be our go-to spot for the next editions. 💡 Good to know: Everyone chooses and pays for their own drinks directly at the bar. No need to bring a prototype or portfolio (unless you’d like feedback). Registration is strongly recommended on Eventbrite: it helps us determine the space that will be allocated to us. Following the theme (like “Christmas sweaters”) are always optional. The event is meant to be easygoing: come and go whenever you like; you’re obviously not required to arrive at 5:00 PM. An activity hosted by Maracas Studio.
