We've enjoyed the 2018 contest season so much that we can't leave it behind! 

Amongst Eurofandom on twitter, many of us have brilliant ideas of how we can channel the spirit of our favourite song contest into games. This summer, we're going to try and make some prototypes out of those ideas.

How can you join in?

• If you have some programming experience, you can use tools like GameMaker to make something simple.
• If you are a writer, you could try using Twine to create an interactive story. I made one of these for ESC Insight during the 2016 contest.
• If you make art or music, you could form a team with a coder to give their game a bit of professional polish
• If you just have an idea, you could put that idea in written form so that you can form a team with someone to make that idea a reality.
• If you don't have any of the above, you can help by testing games, spreading the word using #3minsongjam on Insta & twitter and generally cheerleading all of our efforts.

Any further advice?

Step 1) Believe in it and code it all day long 

Step 2) Just roll with it

And that's how you jam a game.
