Hyper casual Game Jam in Kyiv is a two-day event for game developers and creative people where they will have a whole weekend to create a real game (or a prototype) in a team of other creative individuals. Attendees can come with their own team or form a new team with the other attendees at the event.

WHY HYPER-CASUAL?

Over the past few years, hyper-casual games have seen unprecedented growth, and with recent million investments and success of hyper-casual powerhouses like Voodoo and Lion Studios, their momentum is only getting stronger.

WHY GAME JAM?

Hyper casual refers to minimalist games which emphasize simplicity in their design, quick development and advancements in ad monetization – a perfect match for game jam which supposes creating a complete game within a short span of time.

WHAT YOU WILL FIND:

Organizers involve top experts (mentors) who will help developers in a creative process, evaluate and give feedback for their projects and top partners who will support the game jam in various ways.

The event will start with an educational block that consists of a few talks from the top experts. The exact schedule is coming soon.

At the end of the event, developers will have a chance to present their games to the jury. The best projects will get valuable prizes, as well as the opportunity to get real offers from presented publishers.
