Indie Galactic Space Jam is going to be held on August 13th-16th in Florida.
Thursday’s opening is being held at the Orlando Science Center, and Friday through Sunday is at the Melrose Center.
“Our goal is to bring together people from various creative and technical fields to develop fun games that generate excitement among the public about space travel and exploration,” explains the Indie Galactic Space Jam website.
The games that are produced are geared to help promote interest in Science, Technology, Education and Math (STEM) education to the generations that will carry these concepts into the future.
Everyone is welcome to pitch their game ideas to the group. The best ideas will be used to make space games.
“Developing games in 48 hours is hard, exhausting, and laborious work that is also collaborative, thought provoking, exciting, rewarding, and fun,” note organizers of the Indie Galactic Space Jam.
Programmers, game designers, artists, musicians…all are welcome to take part.
“We’re looking for artists, programmers, game designers, UI & UX designers, sound designers, writers, poets, interpretive dancers, people excited about games, people excited about space, people who like to eat pizza, and people like you.”
