NZGF: PB & Jam - NZ Game Jam

Play by Play and NZ Games Festival are excited to welcome you to our first ever game jam! Help us pre-game for our festival week with a weekend of creativity, networking and nonsense.

This 48 hour game jam will see motley crews assembling quickfire games that show their unique take on a hidden theme. Thanks to Yoobee, teams will have access to a communal space to work or have the option to break away and work in their own spaces.

The game jam is completely free to participate in, and there are no barriers to entry – all newcomers are welcome! All you need to do is register in advance so we know you’re coming. Please consider giving a small donation when you register to help us hire a fridge for jammers to use over the weekend. Any excess will go towards refreshments.
