About HackSussex Game Jam 2026
This is an opportunity for students of all abilities to collaborate, learn new skills, and build something cool using technology. It's a great way for people with similar interests to work together on exciting projects in a fast-paced, creative environment. HackSussex Game Jam is a fun and inclusive weekend-long event that invites participants to team up and build their own video games in just a short span of time.
