WELCOME! Spooky Game Jam 2026 is presented by Gamedev GBG & SKIP! In this game jam, you get to make a game based on a certain theme in just a few days! After submitting your game, there will be a panel of judges who will vote on the games. Game jams are a fun way to challenge yourself and meet like-minded individuals interested in game development. It is a safe space for creating and discussing games. The best part is that, in the end, you will have created and finished a game that you can share with friends, family, and your fellow developers. Are you new to game development and don't think you can finish a game in such a short amount of time? Well, give it a shot anyway, it's worth a try, and you'll probably learn a lot! Please note there are no limits to the type of game you can create for the jam, as long as it fits the theme! Some examples include computer games, VR games, AR games, board games, card games, interactive experiences, and interactive stories.
