Global Game Jam 2023 - Enschede

Ruben Hulzebosch

A game jam is similar to a hackathon where people come together for a short period of time to create games around a central theme.

Ariënsplein 1

So, what is this Global Game Jam thing?The Global Game Jam® (GGJ) is the world&#x27;s largest game jam event (game  creation) taking place around the world at physical locations. Think of it as a hackathon focused on game development. It is all condensed into a 48 hour development cycle. The GGJ encourages people with all kinds of backgrounds to participate and contribute to this global spread of game development and creativity. The structure of a jam is usually that everyone gathers on Friday late afternoon, watches a short video keynote with advice from leading game developers, and then a secret theme is announced. All sites worldwide are then challenged to make games based on that same theme, with games to be completed by Sunday afternoon.Sounds awesome!
