Teal Tabletop Jam is a boardgame development marathon, brought to you by the organizers of Azul Game Jam! Participants work together in teams in order to deliver a themed game within 24 hours. The theme is revealed on-site, right before the start of the marathon.
Azul Game Jam is our original, yearly event! Instead of boardgames, participants are invited to create videogames around a common theme. It is a bigger event that TTJ, where you have access to multiple industry professional speakers, CV reviews by recruiters, networking opportunities and a whooping 48h to complete your game!
