The GGDA is glad to support game jam sites around the state. The Global Game Jam is Jan. 30-Feb. 1 with locations at:

GSU

KSU

Online Georgia Discord Jam

SCAD-Atlanta

SCAD-Savannah

UGA

Each site that attracts more than 20 participants is welcome to nominate one team for the annual Best in Georgia contest, which is free for them. Teams get paired with an industry mentor who helps guide them as they work on their games for another month. At that point, the nominated games are judged on the work they have completed since the jam, and the winning team wins several thousands of dollars in industry services - legal advice, marketing support and so on.

Ghost Gaming’s UEFN contest is a great new addition to the Best in Georgia competition.
