What is a game jam, and why should I join this one?

Game jams are a timed competition where games are created (typically in teams) and then rated against each other. Game jams are a fun way to complete a finished project in a short period of time. You can make new connections and lasting memories, and must importantly, have fun! They are also an incredible way to add completed, polished products to portfolios.

In the Chili Code Jam, you will have one week to design and develop a full game based around the theme, light! The creation period is Saturday, December 21st, 12:00am GMT to Saturday, December 28th at 12:00am GMT.  You can use any engine and make your game 2d or 3d.

With a one-week creation time, you have pressure to work, but plenty of time to chill! Any questions? Message navybluechilipeppers on discord for help!



Teams can be a max size of 5 for fair voting.
