What is a Game Jam?

A Game Jam is a short event where you and others work together to create a small game. They're a great way to test ideas, build your skills, and meet other awesome creative people. Whether you've never made games before or you know your way around making games, get involved!

Why This Game Jam?

This jam doesn't require a huge commitment! This Game Jam is open to all skill levels, from beginner game-makers, to seasoned jammers looking for a fun, relaxed weekend.

We are also supported by Monash University's Games and Immersive Media Staff, who will be on standby through Ed Forums to assist with any game dev related questions. Remember to be considerate of their time!

Theme

The theme will be released in-person, at G.08 Mixed Reality Studio at the start of the game jam.
