They bring together individuals from all fields of game development, including programmers, producers, writers, artists, QA testers, and localization experts. IGDA Seattle empowers developers to positively impact their careers and the industry through various initiatives.

They host speaker events where members can learn from industry experts and each other. Networking opportunities are also provided, allowing game makers to form meaningful connections. The brand offers online resources, videos, contacts, and discussions to support professional growth.

IGDA Seattle relies on the dedication and volunteer work of its members, as well as the generosity of local game studios and venues. They encourage membership in the IGDA Global, which offers benefits like Unity license discounts, GDC passes, and GDC Vault access.
