CCC Annual Week Long Games Jam

So from August 26th to the 30th CCC will be having its second annual GameJam where we will dedicate the entire week to making and playing video games. The event runs 10am-4pm everyday Monday to Friday with Friday mostly about presenting our games and eating cake.

Last year we combined it with Young Rewired State, but this year I played a much bigger part in the festival so we delayed it.

So it will be once again be taking place in the church and hopefully we will be making lots of cool new games. We will also have a visit from art teacher Ron to help out with the graphics. We will also be having lots of game competitions on consoles throughout the ages.

I am going to assign random groups to mix the participants up a bit to get different outcomes.

I'll keep you posted.

Company Sponsors

I am truly pleased to announce that YoYo Games have sponsored the club by providing copies of their amazing Game Maker and Game Maker HTML5 software. Having access to this excellent software not only means we can make great games but share them with the world. Thank you so much to all the staff at YoYo Games for making this possible.

We are also very pleased to announce that O'Reilly have offered assistance by way of some of their instructional books you can check out their full catalog of books here. O'Reilly have a great reputation with things like the Maker Faire (they also run a Maker Faire in the UK too) so we are truly grateful for their help and support through their excellent resources.

It is a huge honor to have the support of Young Rewired State not only do they run amazing events to encourage young people to code and hack data for good, they were in part inspiration for me to set up this group. The fun and the comradery of the events that I have worked with them at have been of amazing benefit to all those involved. I sincerely thank Young Rewired State not only for helping fund us but also for simply being Young Rewired State.

I am really pleased to announce that Rapid Electronics supplier of electronic components, equipment and educational kits have decided to help out the Creative Computing Club. It is genuinely appreciated to have this local and leading UK distributor supporting us not only with vital components but years of knowledge and experience. Thank you all at Rapid.
