We are excited to host yet another Godot India Community Mini Jam, a 4-day mini game development event bringing together developers, artists, and game enthusiasts to create games using the Godot Engine.
This jam is a great opportunity to collaborate, showcase creativity, and push the boundaries of game development within a limited time. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, join us for an exciting challenge and be part of India's growing Godot community!
The jam will focus on creating quick, small games. You’ll have just 4 days to build a fully playable game from scratch. The theme will be announced at the start of the jam, so be prepared to think fast, innovate, and bring your ideas to life!
To take part in the Godot India Community Game Jam, all you need is an itch.io and GitHub (recommended) account. If you don’t have one yet, go ahead and create one, it’s quick and easy!
