Make games for a chance to win awesome prizes during 2020’s Unreal Spring Jam

News

Ready to make some awesome games? The 2020 Unreal Spring Jam begins June 4 at 2 PM EDT right after the Inside Unreal livestream (available to stream on Twitch), where the theme for the event will be unveiled. Contestants will have until June 9 at 11:59PM EDT to submit their projects.

The five-day development marathon is a great way to use the engine to see how a game is built from start to finish for the first time. It’s also a great way for more experienced users to expand their knowledge, especially with the recent release of Unreal Engine 4.25, and to collaborate with new teams.

Projects will be recognized for gameplay, visuals, and their creative use of the theme. Whether you’re participating solo or with a team of up to five members, expect fun development mishaps, creative brainstorming sessions, and a chance to win exciting prizes from our generous sponsors: Falcon Northwest, Assembla, GameTextures.com, SideFX, Whole Tomato, DEKOGON, Plan B Studios, Velarion, Tala Esenlikler, Synty Studios, MoCap Online, and SB.

The winner of the “Army Of One” special modifier category will receive an Unreal Engine-branded Falcon Northwest PC!
