The Awful Summer Jam is a relaxed 4 weekend game jam where you make a video game based around your interpretation of the given theme.

This is a feedback focused jam where everyone is encouraged to play and review each other's entries. So if you've never made a game before, this is a great place to start!

The annual Awful Summer Jam is here again and the clock is ticking. Our theme this summer is 60 SECONDS, so dust off those old stop watches and start brainstorming.
