Game Jam 101: How to Plan a Game
Join T5 UI/UX Designer and Game Jammer Enthusiast Sola Chang as she breaks down how to plan for a game jam from start to finish.
She’ll cover the basics of how to prepare and tips to ensure you’re equipped with a solid foundation before a Game Jam’s kickoff.
👀 What to Expect
In this workshop, participants will look at a series of game design documents that were created for past game jams by Sola and her team, which were instrumental in successfully completing their games.
We’ll also go over common roles and responsibilities of team members. In the second half, participants will break into small teams to create their own game design doc and practice outlining the basics of an appropriately scoped game that’s achievable within a short time frame.
