Rainbow Game Jam '16 is a 2 week game jam to celebrate and promote diversity within the game industry.


The jam is a product of some planning and feedback through the Rainbow Game Dev. Group in collaboration with IGDA LGBTQ+ Sig. The group was created to create a community around the LGBT+ identifying and allied community in Scotland, to allow for a safe space for communication, meet new people, and to be able to host regular meetups in the various Scottish cities.

The game jam will run from 20th August to 4th September, to encourage as much time as possible for participants to create and submit games.

#RainbowJam16 official Discord server discord.gg/3M5wXMj

Community Voting and judging will take place for two weeks thereafter, from there the top games in each category or from judges will be selected and awarded prizes.

We are currently looking for sponsors for the game jam. If you are interested or want to find out more, feel free to drop an email too steven@insertimagination.co.uk!
