Global Game Jam Next 2024

GGJ NEXT® is an annual event operated by the Global Game Jam® organization to serve younger people (12-17 years old) who are interested in learning the creation of video games.

Take part in the biggest Game Design challenge for youth of the year! Join thousands of students worldwide who all have one goal: make a really cool game!

The Global Game Jam NEXT is part of global initiative to encourage youth to stretch their creative muscles in the world of game design.  In Nova Scotia, ShiftKey Labs and HCI4Good will be partnering with SuperNOVA and Ignite Atlantic to host Game Jam NEXT sites in three locations across the province, so you can find the one near you!

Please note that each location has its own sign-up, so make sure to choose the right one.
Regardless of where you go, you will have access to four free workshops in the week before the event to help you get set up, courtesy of SuperNOVA!
