Sacramento Developer Collective would like to present our next monthly Game Jam!

A monthly exercise to keep those creative juices flowing and to sharpen those skills

This game jam will be 24 hours long and we look forward to seeing what you all end up making

THEME: MAKING WAVES

---------------------------------------------------------------

Submissions

Video game assets on their own OR a full-fledged game! 

Some of the core functionalities of every game has: programming, art, audio, and/or design. Some games don’t need all of them, which is still just as doable, like tabletop games that don’t need code or audio.

If you'd like to create teams, come join us in our Discord and we have some Game Jam channels for you to work in :)

What if I never made a game before?

Sometimes trying to even start a game is the hardest (and best!) part! 

A good way to get started is to follow a tutorial to get a jumpstart and after that, you can add all the other elements to really make it your own creation!
