What is a Game Slam?

A Game Slam is a fun way to practice game development, inspired by game jams but with a more relaxed approach. Instead of rushing to create a complete game, you'll focus on building specific game mechanics and learning as you go.

What Makes Game Slams Different?

Learn at Your Own Pace

Take time to understand and implement game mechanics without the pressure of a strict deadline.

Focus on What Matters

Concentrate on making your game mechanics feel good, rather than trying to build everything at once.

Clear Goals

Each slam comes with a simple checklist of what you need to do to complete it.

How It Works

When you join a Game Slam, you'll get a challenge and a set of game assets to work with. Here's why this approach is helpful:

Skip the Art Part

We point you to the game assets, so you can focus on making the game feel fun to play.

Discover New Assets

Each slam features work from game artists, helping you find cool assets for your future projects.

Know When You're Done

Each challenge has a simple list of requirements, so you know exactly what you need to build.
