We are proud to announce that the Montreal Game Jam 2017 is officially launched.
What is even more amazing, is that we have been able to double the number of seats available!! But hurry up, the tickets are going to sell fast.
Like each year, you will be offered food during the event, receive a shirt and participation prize, and have a wonderful experience.
You can book your seat now at https://mtlgj2017.eventbrite.ca.
See you there!

Those who have visited our website or our Facebook page over the past few days might have seen that the registration for the Montreal Game Jam 2016 has discreetly begun.
We only have 140 seats available this year, since our event will be held simultaneously with an Open Day at ÉTS.
In order to simplify registrations, you can now purchase a ticket on Eventbrite for only $10:
https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/billets-montreal-game-jam-2016-19632883483
Why are we charging $10 this year when it used to be a free event previously?
Every year some registrants were withdrawing at the last minute, and sometimes without informing the organizers. 220 participants out of the 260 enrolled last year have shown up to the event.
New this year, a t-shirt (limited edition!) will be provided to all participants, in addition to the traditional Friday night buffet, breakfast, snacks and beverages offered during the event.
We wish you all a wonderful holiday season and we look forward to seeing you again for our 6th edition!

The Indie Speed Run is a 48 hours game jam happening in several locations around the world. The games you made will be reviewed by a panel of famous judges such as Notch (Minecraft) and Peter Molyneux (Fable 1-3, Godus, Black and White) and more! We will be holding our event in the weekend of September 13 to 15.
How to register:
- Register on their website Indie Speed Run
-
Create your team (optional)
-
Sign up to our location by following this link and clicking the orange button which says ‘Register’.
-
Friday September 13, when the 48 hours begin, your team will be charged a 25$ fee by the Indie Speed Run.
The jam will take place at the École de technologie supérieur, the same location where we held the global game jam in January. Here’s a map showing how to find us.
We have a limited amount of places for this jam. For those of you who cannot come, we hope to see you again at our next Global Game Jam which will take place January 24 to 26.
