We're aiming for a first full meetup in September, but we may try to get a more socially focused one in a couple of weeks.

We'd love to hear what kind of topics folks would like to have discussions on.

If I was in NYC I'd totally join you. I really wish there was something like this in Chicago. Have fun, guys!

This started with two of us both wishing it existed and coordinating together. Around 20 some people joined the meetup group very quickly after it went public.

It couldn't hurt (too much) to just put the word out there, I'm willing to bet Chicago has some latent demand too! NYC is a relative wasteland when it comes to game dev (disproportionally to its size).

Technically im in NJ but would be interested in coming. I am still in the early stages of learning UE4, is that going to be ok or am I going to be lost without more advanced knowledge?

The best bet will be to keep an eye on the agenda. From the people that have joined so far there is a wide skill range so there will certainly be others around at the same level.

Right now our expectation is for the first meet up to be primarily social and to get a gauge of what content people will be willing to both attend and volunteer to present on their own.
