Please note: there will be no airdrops for participation in the Game Jam. Prizes will only be awarded to teams that build excellent projects that demonstrate the unique capabilities of the Dojo engine.

Welcome to a special Holiday edition of the Dojo Game Jam!! This extended jam between 12/15 and 1/2 will give Sensei and Senpai a full two weeks to build more robust projects on the provable Dojo Engine.

Prizes will be awarded to winning teams, but the goal of this game jam is to combine the efforts of those who share the vision of fully onchain games.

If you’re ready to get involved and find a team, introduce yourself in the Dojo Discord - new contributors are always welcome. From there, the Dojo Book is a great place to start your journey.
