HSLU Hochschule Luzern

class room in a modern highrise building
    • The jam site is on the campus of the University of Applied Sciences and Arts computer science department in Rotkreuz. It is in an open space in a modern building directly next to the train station. There are restaurants and late night shops in walking distance. Because it is a campus, there are no designated sleeping spaces, but the site open for the whole weekend. It's a non-smoking building and pets are not allowed. Also, there are no real long term parking spaces nearby. The building is closed to the public and has security. There is also a library with books that can serve as inspiration or to help you make your game. There is free Wifi, but you may have to use your mobile phone to log in.
      Everybody is welcome, even if you are not a member of the university and we also welcome all ages above 18 and experience levels.
      We will have some Arduino, Raspberry Pi's, Makey Makey, VR equipment and some other alternatives on site. There are also monitors, but please bring your own computer or Laptop.
      Board games, card games or other more analog games are also welcome.
      There is a game presentation, but there will be no competion or jury and no awards.
