A competition focused on learning
This Game Jam isn't just about competition; it's a learning journey. You'll have the unique opportunity to apply what you've learned in our Action Game Course and further enhance your skills with real-time feedback and guidance from our instructors.
Rules
You must share your progress
The focus on this Game Jam is on learning, while its a great thing to have an opportunity to showoff your skills we also want other people to learn from each other by watching how your project evolves. This is also a place where you can ask for questions to your instructors or get help from the community if you get stuck on something.
You must own the Action Game Course to enter
This Game Jam is exclusive for members who have purchased the Action Game Course, the reason is we are interested in see you grow as a game developer and its a great opportunity to apply the knowledge you got from the course into a small project.
You must be able to receive money through PayPal to be able to claim the price
This is not a requirement if you want to participate, but if you are not eligible to collect the money we won’t be able to send it to you. In the future more payment methods will be added.
You must enter solo, no teams allowed
We want to see you growth as a developer so you are free to use assets and all the tools available in the Unreal Engine’s ecosystem to create your game.
The game must fit the Competition Theme
The theme will be revealed at the same day when the competition starts. This is because we want to make sure no participant is working on the game before the starting date to make competition fair.
You are able to use external content
You can use everything that the Unreal Ecosystem gives you for free or paid: marketplace assets, Megascans, plugins, etc. The important thing is that you create a game and give the best experience to the players.
You must deliver your game before the deadline
To show your game you need to make a video of your gameplay and also create the executable so that we can test your game. If there is no executable you must at least share a video but we will consider those who know how to package their games and export them to a PC Platform. The delivery date is December 18th at 0:00 Pacific Time.
