Has a certain Unity announcement left you thinking about porting your game to a new engine? Need some motivation to get started? 

Welcome to the Port Your Game Jam, a 3 week long game jam that is here to encourage you to start the porting process for your Unity games to different engines.

What engine? 

It doesn't matter! It's entirely up to you what engine you want to port your game to. Some good recommendations are:

  • Godot
  • Unreal Engine
  • Construct
  • GameMaker
  • Flax Engine

What do I submit?

This jam won't be judged in any way and aims to work to start you on your porting journey.  Although there is no need to submit anything, we encourage you to create a devlog during the process or post mortem to reflect on your work.

Who can participate?

This jam is open to anyone and everyone, whether you are a seasoned dev looking to get some motivation to get started on your porting process or a junior trying to learn a new skill. 

what is a port?

In this context, a game port is the process of moving your game to a new game engine, such as moving from Unity to Godot or Unreal Engine.

Do I have to work only within the specified game jam duration?

No! You can work on your project whenever you want, the point of this jam is to get you started.

Can I submit a game that I have not published? 

Yes! This jam is to get you started on your porting journey whether you have published the game or not!
