🎮 About the Event

Slow Jam 2026 is a month-long game jam designed to give you time to explore, experiment, and create without the crunch. Whether you're building your first game or collaborating with friends on something ambitious, this jam is all about the process, not just the deadline.

Each week, we'll feature guest speakers from the local industry sharing stories, tools, and techniques to inspire your journey. The jam wraps up with an in-person showcase where you'll get to play what others have made and share your own creations!
