Thank you for joining the Global Game Jam 2024 in Zürich!

After a three-year pause the Global Game Jam in Zürich returned from January 26th to 28th, 2024, with a new venue at ETH Zürich.

The jam took place in the StuZ hall, located in the CAB building of ETH Zürich (CAB F21). It was here that sixty talented participants came together and accomplished the remarkable feat of creating fifteen games in just 48 hours!

This event was made possible by the generous contribution of GIANTS Software, and it is organized by the Game Technology Center in collaboration with Dock18 and the Swiss Game Hub
