Summer Games Jam
We are back again in the Science Gallery who are generously hosting us for a Games Jam come Saturday June the 19th. There is room for 40 people. You can get your *TICKETS HERE*
“At 9.30am, on Saturday 19th of June, we invite you to come to the Science Gallery to make a game of your own in less than 7 hours. This event is open to professional, independent, hobbyist and college game developers with talent who want to express themselves through the medium of games development. We hope that people will take this opportunity to collaborate and mingle with fellow developers in this burgeoning independent scene.
So what can you expect? After the early introductions, the “theme” for the day will be announced and participants can start designing, coding or drawing their game ideas. We encourage experimentation, daring and collaboration. You are free to work solo or in a group, you can make use of whatever tools you wish and you should bring your own laptop. Early tea/coffee will be supplied and the cafeteria is open all day. At the end of the day you can take a well earned break and enjoy a drink of wine while checking out the other amazing gems created on the day.
Tickets 10 euros. Seat, Table, Wireless internet and power supplied. You bring the skills, laptop and ideas. For further info please contact info@theshindig.org.
This event is hosted by the Science Gallery and is kindly sponsored by PopCap Games, Havok, GameDevelopers.ie as well as the School Of Computer Science and Statistics, Trinity College Dublin. This event is in association with the Interactive Entertainment Technology MSc at Trinity of which both event organisers Jonathan Ruttle and John O’Kane are graduates.”
