The Game Jam Plan

If you intend to join in the Game Jam then it is very important that you start work NOW on your preparation.

Remember, we are using this opportunity to widen student knowledge by using the Unreal Development Kit, however this is outside of the course and examination syllabus. Students will NOT need to know the Unreal Development Kit in order to complete their course and pass examinations, but if you are hoping to take part in the Game Jam you should begin your extra curricula studies NOW.
