Game Jam
A Game Jam is an event where game developers, designers, artists, and enthusiasts come together to create video games in a short period, typically ranging from 24 to 72 hours. Participants often form teams and brainstorm ideas, leading to the rapid development of playable games. These events encourage creativity, collaboration, and experimentation, allowing individuals to showcase their skills and learn from one another.
Game Jams can be organized locally or globally, with themes or constraints that guide the development process. They often culminate in presentations where teams share their creations, fostering a sense of community and innovation within the gaming industry.
