Unity Technologies, provider of the Unity multi-platform engine and
development tools, today announced a series of two-day workshops in
Asia to celebrate the strong development communities of the region
and their rapidly increasing adoption of Unity. The three
bootcamps, set to take place in Seoul (April 9-10), Tokyo (April
12-13), and Beijing (April 14-15), will provide attendees with an
excellent line-up of technical and informational sessions.
"The three countries we've decided to hold bootcamps in this
year paint an amazing and exciting picture of gaming's history,"
said David Helgason, CEO of Unity Technologies. "Japan has shaped
some of the strongest and longest lasting traditions and franchises
in the industry. Korea has blossomed in recent years into a
powerhouse of game design and talent. China, though a relatively
new territory for gaming, is growing at an exponential rate. It's
an exciting time for game development in Asia and we're thrilled to
be a part of it."
Developers from Unity's R&D teams will conduct sessions
covering more than a dozen development topics, empowering attendees
with keen insight in to the engine and tools. Veteran game
developers from the region will share their stories of success and
intimate knowledge of development using Unity. The sessions will
compliment a set of localized topics that speak to the specific
development communities in each country. In addition to a full
schedule of in-depth sessions, attendees will have an excellent
chance to network and communicate with the creators of Unity, as
well as other Unity developers in each community.
"Asia has a wonderfully diverse set of cultures and aesthetics
that translate into some unique games and approaches to game
development," said John Goodale, General Manager of Asia for Unity.
"We are honored to enjoy the rapid adoption of Unity in Asia and
these bootcamps are to show the appreciation we have for our
customers and the tremendous interest we've seen from developers
throughout the region."
