EVENTS

Project Selection Game Jam - A weekend-long marathon of rapid game development held at the start of the school year. Our projects for the year are selected from the prototypes made at the jam.

Happy Fun Game Night! - An event held at the end of each semester where GDC members are invited to de-stress before finals by getting together and playing some games.

The Global Game Jam - A game jam held at the start of the spring semester at multiple sites across the world, including UMBC, where people compete globally to make a game from start to finish in 48 hours.

Digital Entertainment Conference - The mission of the UMBC Digital Entertainment Conference (DEC) is to bring students face-to-face with the games industry. At DEC local industry professionals volunteer their time to reach out to students right here at UMBC. This provides students with an exciting opportunity to learn about how games get made and how they can get a job making them!
