Third Annual Game Jam Play Party in association with GDS - Dundee
Date and time
Description
We're kicking off 2014 as we do every year by inviting Global Game Jam teams from across Scotland to our traditional annual Game Jam Play Parties. Showcase your games, play each other's, get feedback, and vote for your favourite to win the IGDA Scotland Community Choice award in your city.
This year though, we're going above and beyond tradition by hosting not one but two Play Parties: Glasgow (12th Feb) and Dundee (19th Feb). We're encouraging as many jammers as possible to come along to their local party, or even travel to show off your games to people in other cities.

This year's new Dundee Play Party is being hosted in association with the Abertay Game Development Society, who have graciously organised Bar One in Abertay's Student Centre for us.
If you wish to stay up to date on the GDS' activites, feel free to Like their page, join their group or follow @AbertayGDS.
Do I need to print out and bring by Eventbrite ticket?
No, we will have a guest list at the door and can check you in electronically. There is no need to waste trees on a paper ticket.
How can I register as an exhibitor to showcase my game?
If your team has already filled out the pre-registration Google Form that was emailed to you during the Global Game Jam, you're all ready to go! If you didn't get an email with a link to the Google Form to pre-register, or you need to change your response, please contact info@igdascotland.org and we'll sort you out.
As an exhibitor, do I need to bring my own equipment?
Yes you do. We won't be able to provide hardware on the night for people to play your game on besides a power socket (don't play with the mains, kids), so it's important that you bring your own equipment. If you'll be showcasing a mobile game on your own phone or tablet, that's all you need (bring your charger just in case). Also bear in mind that only students will be able to use Abertay's wireless internet (eduroam), although the building does have reasonable 3G reception.
If you need a PC, laptop or console, you will need to provide and transport these yourself. Don't forget the usual peripherals, cables, a single monitor, controllers (if you need them) and your own extension lead. We can only promise a single power socket on the night, so having your own extension lead is essential.
How can I help?
IGDA Scotland, like the rest of the IGDA around the world, is powered by volunteers. If you are able to contribute a bit of your time to help us run this event, or any of our other activities, please sign up as a volunteer. Equallly, we are always interested in talking to anyone who would like to sponsor the chapter, whether for a specific event or more generally. Please don't hesitate to contact us at info@igdascotland.org. Your support, whether in time or financial, would be greatly appreciated.
