Castle Game Jam 2015

Game Jam at a castle.

From the website:

Castle Game Jam is an event which brings together programmers, musicians, artists and designers that together create interesting concepts over the course of 1 week. It’s meant to be the best vacation of the year, yet also inspiring and fulfilling workwise. As a participant you’ll meet new contacts from all over the world and ignite a fire within you to keep you going until next year.

In case you’ve got the idea that this is a game jam about castles, it’s not.

Each year our goal is to rent a big castle, and then we do a relaxed jam with a predetermined theme (which is revealed as the jam starts).

Game jams are good for prototyping new ideas which you can afterwards take a step further if you liked the result. In best case scenario, you’ll meet new people you’ve never met before and go home with a team ready to create its first game together.

On top of the game development, we’ll also have lectures, workshops, live music acts, barbeque, parties and team building/networking activities.
