Global Game Jam 2020

2020-01-31 - 2020-02-02

TAG is hosting Global Game Jam (GGJ) again in 2020. GGJ is the world’s largest game jam event taking place around the world at physical locations. Think of it as a 48 hour long game making marathon. It is the growth of an idea that in today’s heavily connected world, we could come together, be creative, share experiences and express ourselves in a multitude of ways using games. If you are interested in jamming with us, please register at: https://globalgamejam.org/2020/jam-sites/tag-lab

 

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.

The jam is known for helping foster new friendships, increase confidence and opportunities within the community. The jam is always an intellectual challenge. People are invited to explore new technology tools, trying on new roles in development and testing their skills to do something that requires them to design, develop create, test and make a new game in the time span of 48 hours.

TAG will have a jury at the end of the jam, who will give out some awards as well as a two our public play-test from 5pm to 7pm on Sunday the 2nd.

 

IMPORTANT:

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN COMPUTER / EQUIPMENT!
You will also need to upload your game to the GGJ site.
