Building Your Discord Server Through Every Stage of Game Development
Anthony Teija Senior Developer Advocate at Discord

The best game communities start long before launch day. Learn how to build a community & evolve it through your game's alpha, release, & beyond. We'll cover channels, roles, events, moderation, & how to bring players straight from your game into your community & keep them engaged.

Anthony will walk through the four stages every game passes through in development, alpha/beta, release, & post-release & what your server should actually look like at each one: why starting minimal beats over-building, how forum channels turn scattered feedback into organized bug reports, how community invites can auto-assign your beta testers, & how Rich Presence & bots can bridge your game & your server to turn players into organic marketing.

Anthony is a Croatian-American game developer, installation builder, & music-based visual artist based in San Francisco who has been shipping software professionally since 2013 & has released over twenty games & tools for other developers. At Discord, he works with studios on the Social SDK & the developer platform most recently sharing Discord's acquisition, retention, & monetization roadmap. Come with your questions; he's the person who can answer them.

See you all there!

Thank you everyone for RSVPing for our SF Game Development event with our fellow indie game developers. We can't wait to see everyone there. Make sure to arrive at 5:30pm for networking & game demos.

This event is a part of #SFTechWeeka week of events hosted by VCs & startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com." data-next-head="
