WGC Postmortem
New Media Manitoba is proud to partner with the Winnipeg Game Collective for another Postmortem!
Ever wonder what goes into making a video game?
Every video game you’ve ever played started as an idea, and getting from that idea to something people can actually play takes more creativity, problem-solving, and hard choices than most people ever see.
The Winnipeg Game Collective Postmortem is an evening dedicated to pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to make a video game. Local developers will take the stage to share honest reflections on their projects: what inspired them, what clicked, what fell apart, and what they’d do differently. Each presentation is followed by open Q&A.
Whether you make games yourself or have always been curious about how they come together, this is a free, rare look at the process from the people living it.
Who should come:
- Video game developers — whether you’ve released a dozen projects or are still building your first
- Winnipeg Game Jam 2026 participants — come celebrate what you made and hear how others experienced the jam
- Anyone curious about making video games — this is a rare, honest look at the process from the people living it
- Artists, writers, musicians, and designers who work or want to work in video games
- Anyone who loves video games and wants to connect with the people making them right here in Winnipeg
The Winnipeg Game Collective is a nonprofit community of game developers in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Founded in 2014, the collective promotes game development and fosters a supportive environment, welcoming individuals from all backgrounds and skill levels.
