What the heck is a Portfolio Jam?
It’s a game jam but you work alone on your portfolio. We then have “playtesting” and the coolest portfolios can win some prizes (more about this below). As always, there is food and a place to work. This is an important step for preparing your journey in the game industry.
It is worthwhile to notice that we are planning to have a career and recruitment fair during GGC 2024 and you will need a portfolio to participate in that. So this is the perfect opportunity to get started.
Even if you are not graduating at the end of this year, it is invaluable for you to get started making a portfolio as early as possible because:
- You will get in the habit of saving relevant material (screenshots, recordings, work in progress, builds) of the games you make
- As with making games, you get better at making a portfolio the more often you do it. Better start early than in a panic the summer after you graduate
