AI Game Jam #1: Ship a Web Game in 6 Hours + Afterparty

Join us for an exhilarating afternoon where creativity meets technology! In this six-hour hackathon, you’ll build a playable browser game with the help of AI. No prior game development experience needed!

Utilize tools like Codex, Claude, or Cursor to design, code, and create assets for your unique 2D or 3D web game using stacks like Phaser, Excalibur.js, Three.js, and more. Your main goal? Create something that’s fun, weird, and fully playable by the end of the day!

• A 3D browser game
• A bizarre interactive toy

• An AI-powered NPC or game mechanic
• A procedural world or system like levels, characters, or stories
• A humorous take on Romanian public figures, local politics, and more (but keep it funny! 😂)

• Final demos followed by a five-minute showcase per project
• Afterparty with drinks! 🍻
