48 hours. One surprise theme. One finished game.
Minuit Jam is a 48-hour game jam held onsite at Alliance Française Bangkok, from Friday 23 to Sunday 25 October 2026.
Build a full game in one weekend. No experience needed.
Work solo, or in a team of up to 5.
The theme is Thai-French — and it is revealed live, on Discord, a few minutes before the clock starts.
Free food. A real deadline. 11 awards, 30,000 THB.
It is mandatory to join the official Discord server : start forming teams, ask questions, or hang out with other jammers and gamedevs. Every important announcement goes there first.
✦
Revealed live on Discord on Friday 23 October, minutes before the jam begins.
Thai-French. That is all you get for now.

Entertainment How much fun was it? |

|
Built during the jam and using Base code Your game must be created, uploaded and submitted within the jam period. Reusing code written before the jam starts is fine as long as you mention it. |
Declare your AI Any use of AI must be stated on your game page and in-game. |
|
Assets are fine — credit is mandatory Use assets from any source as long as you hold the rights to use them. Give credit where it belongs. |
No vote manipulation No spam rating, no rating everyone else down, no extra accounts. |
|
Teams of 1 to 5 Three to five works best. There's a team-formation slot onsite, but start looking on Discord now. |
Rate at least 10 entries Not enforced, strongly encouraged. Play your neighbours' games. |
Podium places are decided first, then category awards.
A team may hold a maximum of two awards in total — either one podium place plus one category award, or two category awards.
If a team ranks first in more categories than it can receive, it keeps the categories where it scored highest. Each remaining category passes to the next-highest-scoring eligible team in that category.
Sponsor awards are counted separately and are not affected by this limit.
Any further questions? Ask jam staff onsite, or head to Discord.
