It's back, and better than ever! The UNCC Game Developers' Spring Game Jam! Join us and plenty of other talented developers in our community for 49 hours of collaboration, creativity, and game development.

The 49hr Spring Game Jam is a game development event open to all skill levels and open to all students. A theme will be presented at the start of the game jam, and then you will be set loose to design and create an entire game based on that theme. You'll have a total of 49 hours (from March 15th @ 5:00 PM to March 17th @ 6:00 PM) to put forth your best effort!

This event is open to people of all experience levels and talents! Typically participants will want to work in groups; if you want to work solo, that's fine too! And if you're looking for a new group, plenty of others will be looking for group members too, so don't worry! You can reach out to them on our Discord Page!
