Some of you may have noticed that there is a GDNet Discord Chat link in the upper right corner. GameDev has had real-time chat in many forms over many years, but historically the chat has been heavily if not exclusively biased towards programming conversations. I and the rest of the moderator/staff team would like to make it a more inviting place to all of the various disciplines of game development, and in recognition of that we've broken out the chat with a separate #arts channel for visual arts and game design. In light of that new space, I'd like to extend an invitation directly to the members in this forum to participate in the chatroom and provide feedback in how we can continue to support all of you at GDNet. Thank you!

(Here's a copy of the instructions to join the chat.)
