Philly Game Jam is GO!

The first-ever Philly Game Jam will take place beginning Friday January 18th, 2008 and run until Sunday January 20th, 2008 on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania.

The Philly Game Jam is a 48 hour game building marathon. Teams will race the clock to build working game prototypes within the 48 hour window. The games must be based on a theme announced at the beginning of the contest.

Teams must bring their own technology to compete. Prizes will be awarded to teams creating the most innovative gameplay as well as for the game that most closely reflects the contest theme.

Details are evolving on the Philly IGDA Forum and more will be posted here shortly.
