Arctic Game Multiplayer Jam

Bringing the speed and excitement of hockey to mobile is no easy task, which is why we’ve teamed up with Photon from Hamburg—and now, with YOU!

We invite developers, creatives, and innovators to the Multiplayer Game Jam, hosted in collaboration with Photon and Gold Town Games.

Also participating is Try New Things—a multimedia innovation studio with vast experience in organizing hackathons, bringing an extra level of creativity and innovation to the event.

This is your chance to dive into the Photon Engine, collaborate with your dream team, and build a game with real release potential!
