GenJam 2025

GenJam is a 7-day  game jam focused on generative and emergent design in games.

The challenge is to create a game where part of the experience is generated rather than predefined. This might mean procedural levels, branching narratives, adaptive music, evolving rules, or any other system that produces new and surprising outcomes.
