Following previous years' great success, we’re bringing back the Develop Game Jam! Taking place on Wednesday 11 and Thursday 12 July, the Develop Game Jam welcomes all levels of developer, from beginners to professionals.
Teams of one to four people are welcome, regardless of experience. There will be a theme, revealed to participants twenty-four hours beforehand. Industry mentors will visit during the jam to discuss projects and give advice, and teams will also be fed. The Jam will finish with presentations and prizes.
The Develop Game Jam will run from 12:00 - 00:00 on Wednesday 11, and 08:00 - 14:00 on Thursday 12 July in Room 7. Attendees will need to bring their own computers, but power, internet and refreshments during the Jam opening hours will be provided.
Want to take part? Tickets are free, but there are only thirty places and you must register to secure yours. You don't need to register separately for a Develop:Brighton pass unless you want to attend conference sessions in which case you'll need to buy a conference pass separately.

I really like Develop, I really like the intimacy of it and I love the location.. there’s a good diversity of talks going on so there hasn’t been a time when there’s nothing I want to see.

It’s really nice to see some of the younger people in our studio come to Develop, interact with other people in the dev community and make new contacts. I think it’s really important to learn from other people.
