Tell me more!
Like what?
Trivia and quiz games! Interactive fiction based on Wikipedia articles! A first-person shooter where you eradicate vandalism (which could integrate with the API/OAuth to actually be functional!). Or challenge yourself and others to come up with something completely original. You could even make a board game!
All Are Welcome
Game designer? Artist? Programmer? Writer? General Wikipedia editor or enthusiast? Everyone is welcome to join and contribute their unique skills to the jam.
Dream big, together
We're planning for lots of time for pitches and lightning talks about your ideas. Find people to help you make them real. Brainstorm, discuss, and have fun with others who want to make a game that isn't just another "AAAAA Live Service Game".
