Heroic Hosts Lisbon Gaming Hub Event

Long time followers of our blog will know that we’re always looking for ways to engage with the game development community, sharing our knowledge and expertise with indie developers and early-stage studios, and generally looking to advance our mission of democratizing game development.

So when we learned that a new Gaming Hub was launched in Lisbon - through Unicorn Factory Lisboa - we jumped at the chance to host a Lunch and Learn event for the local game development community. And since we are a remote-first company, with several members based in or near Lisbon, it was also perfect opportunity for a larger group of Heroic Labs engineers to engage with the community as well.

Five members of the Heroic Labs team were joined by more than 50 attendees representing the Lisbon game development community. Over lunch (and a few beers) we were delighted to meet many new faces alongside some old friends. With no formal agenda it was easy to deep-dive into the individual projects in progress from the ever growing community of gaming studios in Lisbon, and Portugal generally.

The event was a ton of fun and we’re already looking forward to doing it again - a huge thank you to Francisco Moreira and Diogo Rato from the Lisbon Gaming Hub for hosting and helping organize! If you weren’t able to attend this time around, contact us and we’ll be sure to invite you to the next event.
