Game jam for high schoolers
Organized by Teenagers in Seattle
Dear Hackers, Musicians, and Artists, 
Welcome to Hack Club's newest adventure. This fall we invite you to join us for Daydream, the world's biggest Game Jam happening simultaneously in 100 cities.
Hack Club wants you to make a game this fall.
Don't consider yourself a game dev? No problem - we have tons of online and in-person workshops for you to make your first game!
This fall, we invite you to learn something new, make something you're really proud of, meet new friends, and go on an incredible adventure together.
With love,
Augie and Renran from Hack Club HQ

What will you 
You can make any game you want as long as it can be deployed on itch.io! All games made
must be deployed and available online for other participants to play and experience. We
will only accept itch.io submission links.
Here are some cool projects from past hackathons to get you inspired:
- • Remedy Renemyby Tongyu and Kai Ling
- • Not an Idle by Armand
- • SPEEDTICKERS by Agustin & Juan
We'll have workshops and activities before Daydream to help you learn game development using Godot!
