What is this?

This is an in person game jam where you will make a game in 3 days based on a theme announced when the jam starts.

More information is available at coloradogamejam.com. The primary jam will take place at the CU Boulder campus in Colorado.

What if I'm a beginner?

Beginners are encouraged to participate! During the jam, we will have mentors volunteering and helping out teams. If you're new to game development or want to learn new skills, this is a great place to do it!
