 At the end of the night, we'll post submitted games on the web for people to download and play.
-'''Artists''': Want to see your work enjoyed in a whole new way?  Contribute it to GAME JAM!  We'll need plenty of beautiful imagery to make the game worlds really shine.  Mainly we need two types of art: sprites for foreground (think cel animation, except with PNGs instead of plastic sheets), and environment for imagery.  New work is great, and if you have any existing pieces which you'd be willing to donate for crazy mashups, that's great too!  Whatever medium you want to start with (papier-mâché, pen and markers, etc.) is great, just as long as it can end up digital.  Backgrounds should be transparent, except in the case that images are intended specifically to be used as backdrops.

 '''Coders''': Work in whatever you're most comfortable with, be it C#, Python, Blender Game Engine, Max/MSP, or what have you.  Just keep in mind that an end goal is to be able to share your games with the rest of the audience, so something that can run on Windows, OSX, Linux (Ubuntu?) with a minimum of extra setup and peripherals would be best.  If you really want to make an iPad or XBox game, or something that uses the latest shader technologies, of course it's fine, just realize you may be cutting out some of the audience.

 If you want to come to Game Jam and either work with a team all night or make new assets all night and share them with all the teams, that would be great.
