Dear Rustaceans,

our next Meetup will be on Wednesday 2024-01-10, 19:15 CET.

This time we’ll talk about game development in Rust. We’ll address questions like: What are Rust’s strengths and weaknesses when it comes to writing a game or an engine? What parts can be used off-the-shelf and what parts are still in the works? Which platforms are supported, which are missing? Are there any notable games written in Rust, yet?

Kai will show a little 3D-demo written in Rust + wgpu which runs natively on the system and in the browser.

Did you try to create a game or an engine on your own? Let us know how it turned out!

You can enjoy some drinks, meet nice people and discuss about Rust.

You can register here

We are looking forward to seeing you. :-)

Yours, Florian and Kai


The meetup will likely be held in German, we will however reevaluate this at the beginning of the evening and may switch to English if needed.


COVID-19 measures: We have restricted the maximum number of participants to ensure social distancing is possible. Accordingly we need to know how many people will attend the meetup. Please make sure to register and, in case you are no longer able to attend, cancel your registration. Feel free to privately send us a message if you think that more safety measures are required.
