🌍 What is Code for a Cause x Micro Jam?
Code for a Cause is a game jam where your creativity can make a real world influence, and Micro Jam is a biweekly game jam that has been running for over a year! Both Jams have 1 thing in common: we love to distribute cash prizes to the winners. But what makes this Jam so special is the mix of charity and game development!
How does this work?
- The total prize pool is split up, spread to the podium and any special awards
- 50% of each prize is then donated to a charity of the winners' choice 💙
We don't have any theme ideas yet, so please suggest themes here:
