A 'Game Jam' is a event held online &/or in person where participants are challenged with creating a video game from scratch based around a selected theme....
Depending on the rules & format of the event, participants may have the option to work independently, or within a team & are giving anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks to complete/publish their game & have it submitted. While a majority of Game Jams are run as game making exercise's for indie developers, many are promoted as contests that offer rewards & prizes to the winners.
