Nordic Game Jam 2010 - Sign Up!

Unread post by NevinSound » 19 Nov 2009, 13:22

Nordic Game Jam 2010 which takes place at IT University is a competition where talented individuals, professionals, hobbyists and the new generation of game developers meet on common ground and work together in a fun and intense atmosphere of creativity and experimentation. It is one of the vehicles behind the new generation of game developers that can experiment with platforms and game ideas in an intense and yet still informal atmosphere.

If you urge to create a game, collaborate and meet other game developers - then Nordic Game Jam is the perfect place for you. As a participant at the Nordic Game Jam you will be part of a global event of creativity and fun.

Nordic Game Jam 2010 has announced the start of sign up at the web site http://nordicgamejam.org. They expect to increase the numbers of participants from 150 to 250 this year. Furthermore the Nordic Game Jam 2010 will also accommodate Peter Molyneux, the Creative Director of Microsoft Game Studios, Europe. He will kick-off the game jam by giving a key note on Friday 29/1 2010 at 18:00. Additionally the Nordic Game Jam will in co-operation the Nordic Game Program - http://www.nordicgame.com/ - for the first time find the Best New Nordic Talent Nominees. The winner will be announced later on the Nordic Game Conference 2010 in Malmö.

This year the Nordic Game Jam will have two other competition tracks running at the same time as the game jam.

1. The Machinima Track. Machinima is a competition, where the participants make a film based on recordings from a computergame or an online community. Machinima is a new way of interpreting the computer game media, as it opens up for collaboration with other people across online networks. You can read more about Machinima on: http://machinima.com/

2. De Unge Spiludviklere - an association, that was founded in January 2009: http://ungespiludviklere.dk/. This competition track is targeted highschool students that are interested in game development. Prior to the actual competition, they will attend a workshop on game engines and how to develop games.

The Nordic Game Jam 2010 will follow the same format like previous years, as an event where students, hobbyists and professional game developers, meet up for a weekend to develop and experiment with new and innovative game ideas. The friendly competition of 48 hours will take place at IT University from 29 - 31 January 2010.

For the sign up, sponsorship and news updates on the event - please check out the web site http://nordicgamejam.org

Looking forward to seeing you all!

Ærgerligt, men du får det da sikkert meget sjovere end dine klassekamerater.

I know! Men det er altså bare så meget nemmere for os som arrangerer eventen at administrere det. Det gamle system med at skulle krydsreferere 200 mennesker mellem en tilmeldingsliste og en kontoudskrift er altså ret broken ;)

Det er på vej :-). Indtil da kan jeg fortælle at interessen i år har været overvældende. I skrivende stund har vi 121 tilmeldte til eventen, og 181 profiler på IGDA.DK. Det er ret meget i forhold til sidste år.
