Register Now for JetBrains GameDev Day 2026

Every game starts with an idea. Getting it into production means navigating code, tools, pipelines, performance bottlenecks, architectural trade-offs, and all the small decisions that only reveal their consequences once a project begins to scale.

On September 28, JetBrains GameDev Day returns with a full day of practical talks for people building games, engines, tools, and production pipelines.

Join us online for free, or watch the livestream together with the local gamedev community at our watch parties in Belgrade and Limassol.
