What is GameJam+?
This is NOT your run-of-the-mill Game Jam, it doesn't END when you submit your game on Sunday evening, BUT it has a bigger POTENTIAL to bring your game into player hands!
Sounds INTERESTING??? Read how we will achieve this below 👇
Game Jam + operates in four stages:
- GAME JAM STAGE: Form a team and create your game project in 48 hours with the help of experienced mentors. This is your typical game jam experience.
- INCUBATION STAGE: The WINNERS of each city will go through an online ACCELERATION while being MENTORED by experienced developers around the world
- CONTINENTAL SEMIFINALS: Finalists meet in 5 major events to compete for continental first place
- WORLD FINAL: A great international final with the finalist teams will reveal the chosen winners and compete for the final prize.
So how BIG is this event? (you might ask 🤔)
In its sixth edition in 2021/2022, it will feature 100 cities worldwide (in 30 countries), more than 2000 participants, 500 projects (150 incubated over 3 months), 1,000 volunteers, in addition to companies such as Unity, Sebrae, etc
