Hi Everyone,
If you are in Scotland in the middle of August then there is a big games festival happening in Dundee. As part of it we have organised a Game Jam. Here are the details:
Dare To Jam is a free Game Jam hosted at the
Caird Hall in Dundee by
Dundee Game Jam.
The event starts 10.30am on Friday the 12th of August and runs until midday on Sunday the 14th when competitors will present their projects. It being run as part of
Dare Protoplay in conjunction with
Dare To Be Digital and
The University of Abertay Dundee.
We realise that not everyone will be able to attend on the Friday so Jammers can start their projects on either the Friday or Saturday. Although the venue will close each evening, participants are encouraged to continue working on the their projects after hours. You can also participate remotely.
The theme of the Jam will be announced at 11am on the Friday giving people half an hour to get settled in and hang out before the Jam kicks off. This is a great chance to meet and collaborate with people in the games industry, have fun and make a game ... you may even be able to win shiny badges.
We have 50 seated tickets issued on a first come first served basis however we have overflow space so people can sit anywhere they like within the very large upper balcony. Please note there is no network access available in the Caird Hall (sorry) so bring a broadband dongle if you have one.
Tickets are available from
http://daretojam.eventbrite.com/ and are FREE. If you have any questions please get in touch on Twitter
