We're gonna have another Game Creators Hangout! The Hangout is a place where those who create games or are interested in it meet up and talk about whatever they like. Its a place for the community, but also to connect people from different communities. It does not matter whether you're a veteran game dev, just started school or just dabble in creating games in your free time - all of you are welcome here. Accessibility: There is a small step at the entrance. Seating is available inside as well as outside. Some tables are only accessible via a few steps. For this evening, the bar is smoke free, but usually it is a smoker bar. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-German\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Es ist Zeit für einen Game Creators Hangout! Der Hangout ist ein Ort, an dem sich diejenigen, die Spiele machen oder daran interessiert sind, treffen und über alles sprechen, was sie möchten. Es ist ein Ort für die Community, aber es geht auch darum, Menschen aus verschiedenen Communities zu vernetzen. Es spielt keine Rolle, ob du ein\*e erfahrene Spieleentwickler\*Inn bist, gerade die Schule angefangen hast oder nur in deiner Freizeit gerne Spiele erstellst - alle sind hier willkommen. Barrierefreiheit: Am Eingang der Bar befindet sich eine kleine Stufe. Es gibt Sitzmöglichkeiten drinnen und draussen. Einige der Tische und Stühle sind nur über 2 Treppenstufen erreichbar. Die bar ist an diesem Abend rauchfrei, aber normalerweise eine Raucherbar.
