SEE YOU THERE - BRING YOUR BEST ASCII

But for real we're doing this a week early because the Chicago Game Developer Industry is going to be out of town the next week.

Game Dev Industry Night is a social gathering for game developers. If you're a game developer and you're interested in a social gathering of game developers of all types (design, programming, art, audio, QA, production, indie, professional, AAA, A, Big Indie, Big Indie Ruining Indie, etc), please come out and hang with us!

Disclaimer:
Industry night is not for pitching your company, game, project, school, kickstarter, charity or otherwise promoting yourself. Please be respectful of other developers when you show up and keep it casual unless explicitly asked. In short, don't be an asshole.
