Come join WolverineSoft for our annual 48-Hour Fall Game Design Competition!Spend a weekend in the Dude making a video game from scratch, and win fabulous prizes! Come alone, or with a team of up to four. Registration begins on Friday at 5:00 PM. We will also offer free pizza for all participants on Saturday at 6:00 PM.What is a Game Jam?A Game Jam (akin to a musical jam session) is a condensed length of time for developers to get together and create a video game. Game Jams provide a fun, collaborative environment with many teams participating, as well as a way for developers to test their own skills and see what they can accomplish in a short amount of time. At the end of the Jam, teams play each others' creations and vote on their favorite games.There are prizes for the best teams, but the real experience of a Game Jam is the knowledge gained during your development. The difference is immense between someone who has never completed a game, and someone who has completed even a small one. Much of the development cycle happens AFTER the game is finished (polishing, deployment, marketing, etc.) and much of the knowledge of game development comes from working on a project with a team, and seeing it to completion.If any of this sounds interesting, please come join us this weekend! We will be hosting tutorials in the first few hours of the Jam, so no prior experience is necessary. Whether you are a programmer, artist, musician, designer, or just someone who wants to learn how to make games, we look forward to seeing you there!
