DigiPen is proud to partner with Seattle Indies to be one of the hosts of this year’s Global Game Jam, the world’s largest game creation event. Throughout the jam, DigiPen faculty and alumni with specialized experience in a variety of skills, such as rapid prototyping, will be dropping by to help playtest games and offer advice to all of our teams.

An open lab area on campus will be dedicated for participants to meet, collaborate, and celebrate during the full 48 hours. We can accommodate anyone looking for a game jam team or anyone already part of a team. A kickoff event, as well as a team formation event, will set the Global Game Jam in motion. Closing presentations will be held at the end of the event.
