Jam Tips
The best pieces from #jam-lessons in our Discord server.
Tip #1
Be sure to take breaks when you need it! Go for a walk, stand up and stretch, or go watch something. Our jam lasts 9 days specifically for this reason.
Tip #2
Game jams are a good opportunity to experiment with ideas, so don’t let fear or doubt stop you from trying something new.
Tip #3
Set yourself a goal for the jam and communicate with your team if you have any. This goes for new tools, techniques, ideas, etc.
Tip #4
You don’t have to be an expert in every game dev related role. If you are struggling understanding and producing, consider joining a team!
Tip #5
Don’t let fear of the unknown prevent you from creating something really cool.
Tip #6
By acknowledging your flaws, you are giving yourself space to grow.
