Workshop: Build Your Game with A Flutter Flame

Are you ready to level up your Flutter skills and create your own game?
We are pleased to announce a new collaboration with Flutter-community and Elias Elfarri.
This session is a hands-on opportunity for developers of all levels to learn and apply Flutter, Google's UI toolkit for building beautiful, native cross-platform applications. Participants will work in teams or alone to create their own original games from scratch, leveraging the power of Flutter's rich widget library, state management tools, and performance optimization techniques. If you are feeling adventurous you can venture out in the land of the code first 2D game engine Flutter Flame. This open source game engine lives on top of Flutter and leverages the powerful framework. Flame introduces a game loop, allowing developers to create simple 2D games utilizing the biggest advantages of Flutter; declarative code and hot reloading for instant development feedback. Also one of the developers behind Flutter Flame will be joining us remotely to help out during the session!
Preparing for the event: Flutter provides different ways to create games. No matter if you want to use your daily Flutter skills to create a text-based game using input fields, buttons and other widgets. You can focus on making simple games like Snake or Mine Sweeper. Otherwise you can go all in with Flutter Flame or Flutter Games Toolkit to utilize the 2D Game Engine to create a Flappy Bird, endless runner or something that requires more complicated logic. Either way this hackathon is about getting into the topic and playing around, meeting other Flutter devs and having a good time!
Prepare yourself:
- Bring your computer & charger
- Install Flutter
- Check out Flutter Flame
- Check out Flutter Games Toolkit
- Install Discord
Team size: 1-2, if you come alone then we will attempt to match you with others or if you prefer working alone then that is also ok.
Prizes: What would a Hackathon be without some prizes? We got everything the Flutter heart desires! The judges will choose 3 teams as the winners, for which they can choose Dash plushyes, Flutter t-shirts and other merchandise as their prizes. Do not worry we will have Stickers and pins for everybody!
Note: You will need to bring your laptop and charger.
