Join over 2 million students from 150+ countries and create something epic! In our Halloween game jam, you'll make a game in 10 days, solo or with a team - and get some freebies along the way!
Our October Jam will be using a visual theme along with a Trick-or-Treat mechanic twist. Both will be announced at the start of the jam.
