The global online competition that allows you to create awesome interactive content returns to Decentraland. And this time it’s a series, running every quarter to seriously boost creativity in the Metaverse. Game Jam runs from September 1-8, with two competition tiers: ‘Pro’ for established Decentraland contributors and ‘Main’ for new and aspiring creators.
There are two ways you can get involved in Game Jam: As a Pro (for established DCL contributors) or, for aspiring professionals, in the Main competition.
And here’s how the $15,000+ USD breaks down for the two competition tracks:
