GDS Game Jam

Ready to test your game making skills? Then this game jam is for you!

Open to both teams and solo developers, this challenge will require you to build a fully-fledged (but small) game from scratch based on an undisclosed theme in only two days, from programming, to designing visuals/audio and narrative development (although you are allowed use assets provided you credit the designer!).

A brief overview of what the day will look like:

Day 1: Theme Revealed & Game Jam Begins

9:00 AM -10:00 AM - Meet people / form groups, theme revealed

10:00 AM - 4:00 PM - Game Jam Time!

4:00 PM - 5:00 PM - share ideas with everyone else for some helpful discussions (game jams, while competitive, are meant to be supportive!)

Day 2: More Game Jamming & Submissions Close

9:00 AM - 5:00 PM - just continue Game Jamming!

Submissions close 11:59 PM.

Day 3: Games Showcase

10:00 AM - 1:00 PM - show off the game you made and play others'! One game will be chosen as the winner.

Whether you have found a team or not come along! Note: every team member must get a ticket so that we can keep a track on numbers. If you have registered but can no longer attend, make sure to refund the ticket (it's free anyway)!

Teams are limited to 6 people maximum - any more members subject to approval.
