DETAILS

Nine66 is organizing its first-ever game jam in Riyadh on May 12-14 at the Diriyah Biennale Art Gallery. The inaugural Game Jam is themed the FastArt edition to mirror the artistic environment where the event will take place. You can develop games of any type, but we encourage participants to create hyper casual games. How the game is played, what kind of game it is, and on what platform are entirely up to you.
