What do you guys know about the scene in Durban? I haven't heard much about it. I'm new to this (and haven't made anything cool yet) but I'm keen to get started and I think that getting involved in the local scene could help me a lot.
There are also a number of hobbiests and students, I'll let them introduce themselves. There was about 12 of us at the one meeting we had, if I remember correctly.
Like I said, we don't have formal monthly meets yet.
But it may be time to organize another social meetup, if people are keen?
I'm really happy that there are some devs here, social meetups sound like a good idea (at least for me) The impression I had was that it was kinda dead

There are a couple durbs devs around, I think @roguecode or @vintar could help you figure out the scene right now.
We're quite a ways out of Durban though, in Howick.
Studio wise, we have Runestorm who produced Rook's Keep and Viscera Cleanup Detail, Lighthouse Games who have made a range of xbox live titles, and most recently pc deathmatch game, Shark Attack Deathmatch, and my own little studio, Rogue Moon, currently finishing up work on a cyberpunk ccg, System Crash.

We should totally have a meetup.
