Hello Madison game jammers!
About
This site is virtual only. There is no physical location open to the public.
There will be a Discord server to communicate with organizers and other jam participants. After you've registered on globalgamejam.org, hit 'Contact' and provide your Discord username and number, and an organizer will give you an invite link.
Event schedule
This site will run the jam starting Friday, January 21 and ending Sunday, January 23.
