Due to COVID-19 our ordinary scheduled Spring Game Jam will take place online.

Format

• The game jam takes place during a weekend starting on Friday evening Central European Summer Time (GMT+2). 
• Main communication channel is LiU Game Jam's Discord. Official communication will be in English but expect to encounter some Swedish as well.
• First we are going to hold an introduction stream and generate a theme together.
• After that everyone is mixed into discussion groups on the Discord server. These groups later pitch ideas for game projects.
• Groups are formed from the pitched ideas. This means that you are not required to join a team before joining the jam.
• After that we jam away and build amazing games.

Themes

The themes were generated by the participants by taking random pairs of words from participant's suggestions. The themes for this year's Spring Game Jam were:

• Orange Expansions
