WELCOME TO DARTMOUTH'S FIRST GAME JAM!!!!!

We are excited to invite you all to.....

THE BACKATHON !!!


The Backathon hopes to provide a low-stakes and less serious event for all students of all studies and all skill levels to not just compete and create a project, but to have fun and create an experience. Game development is a subfield of computer science that has a lot of beginner-focused resources as well as many moving pieces (like art, music, and story writing) that anyone, regardless of major/study plan, can excel in.

Please register for the jam (you will submit your final projects here!) and stay tuned for the theme reveal!
Excited to see you all in the ECSC on November 1st and 2nd!

WITHOUT FUTHER ADO..... CREATE! CREATE LIKE YOUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT!!!
