Welcome to Berlin Mini Gamedev Jam, A MAZE. afterjam edition! Artists, designers and all others who want to be part of the game creation process are invited to our monthly event for experimenting with creating small games!
Berlin Mini Game Jam is a relaxed 8 hour prototyping workshop: After we have chosen a theme together, we form teams or go solo to make game graphics, concepts and prototypes on computers, phones, cardboard or physical space. At the end, we present the results to each other.
Create whatever you want, just bring any materials you need.
Everyone is welcome! Really! Artists, game designers, coders, hobbyists or professionals. Any gender, any background! We always have lots of new people, so don't worry if you don't know anybody yet: You're quite welcome too.
