Your video should include the game name, team name (if you have one) and any identifying information about your team members that you wish to include (names, roles, etc.). We will give you a warning in advance of the stream going live so you can watch and promote it to your friends and followers.
For first-time jammers, we've assembled a list of resources to help you get started as well as inspiring words from our Climate Jam Mentors. And don't hesitate to ask us any questions you might have in the discord!!
When you begin working on your games please take any or all of these words for inspiration.
Now more than ever, IndieCade is focused on supporting creativity, connection, and hope for the future. We invite game creators from across the world to join Climate Jam, to explore solutions that can address a rapidly changing world.
We invite developers from across the globe to join, contribute, and virtually connect.
The goals for the jam are to take action and raise solutions. We believe this generation of creators care deeply for our planet and holds the power to inspire while using games as a platform.
IndieCade is pleased to collaborate with the Games For Our Future team. With their incredible experience of running many jams that foster social change and collaboration we are all in the best of hands.
At this moment it is all the more relevant to think about people, nature, and resilience in the face of global crises.
