30k worth of prizes are up for grabs in this year’s SA Game Jam, so get to entering!

The SA GAME JAM is an annual competition sponsored by local independent game studio, Free Lives. The mission is to encourage more South Africans to try their hand at game making and to support emerging and established developers. A rising tide raises all ships, you know?

Whether you’re a first-timer or an old-timer, SA GAME JAM is for you!

This year you stand a chance to win one (or more) of eight prizes, valued at a total of R 30 000

WHEN:

20 – 22 September 2019

The theme will be announced on Friday at 18:00 and jamming ends after 48 hours, at 18:00 on Sunday (with two hours grace for submissions). You can also extend your jam to 18:00 on Monday, as long as you stipulate this in your submission. 

WHERE:

Anywhere! SA GAME JAM can happen wherever you are. The competition is national, so feel free to enter from all corners of South Africa. If you know of a venue in your city that would be willing to host a couple of developers, why not set up a local hub? (Be sure to let us know about it on the SA Game Jam Discord)

WHO:

Literally anyone. We’re super excited to welcome new game makers to the competition, so ENTER! ENTER! ENTER! If you’ve never made a game before, or if you don’t really know how, there’s a great community of people who are ready to help. There might even be teams who are looking for your specific skills.
