Game Jams

The following are games created during Game Jams. They're made within a set period of time with the goal of a finished product. They are a mixture of solo and team work.

What is a Game Jam?

A Game Jam is an opportunity for game devs to test their skills and challenge themselves to make an interactive experience over a few days. They can either be done in teams or a solo endeavor.
