Building games in .NET MAUI - Shaun Lawrence - NDC London 2023 | Community Feed

Curious whether .NET MAUI can support game development workflows? This session gives you a grounded, practical look.

Shaun demonstrates how to think about game structure in MAUI, how Orbit fits into the toolchain, and how to turn an idea into a maintainable cross-platform game project.

What you’ll learn

The fundamentals of building games with .NET MAUI + Orbit
How to structure project layers for reusable game logic and platform UI
Key technical decisions for rendering flow, input, and iteration speed
