Game Jam 2020 Toronto

The Toronto Game Jam is a FREE, annual, open-to-the-public event where the craziest game makers in the world gather for a 3 day game making binge. Weiss, Webster, Kupferman, Creighton, and Woo explain things best. We're a pressure cooker that strengthens (or destroys) friendships, produces amazing games, and breeds goats.

"TOJam Hindsight is 2020" took place May 8 - 10, 2020 online. It will take more than a worldwide pandemic to slow TOJammers down! Watch this space and @torontogamejam.

Contact if puzzled or overwhelmed.

Houdini Indie license
April 27, 2020

Toronto based SideFX is once again offering all TOJammers a trial indie license of their procedural gamedev tool Houdini!

Houdini's procedural node-based workflow (used by AAA and indies) offers a smarter and faster way to create high quality game art. Perfect for a game jam! Houdini is a procedural pipeline-in-a-box where all the steps needed to set up a model or game level are represented by networks of nodes. These nodes can be maintained deep into production, making last minute creative decisions easy.
