GameJams<\/h6>\n
The advantages of a game development competition are that there is a lot to learn in a short period of time. It's an opportunity to use your skills and be able to adapt them to any situation.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
Knowing how to code<\/h6>\n
This is a good way to learn how to make your projects a reality and how to communicate as a team. Everyone finds their role here, whether they are an artist, programmer or other ! It also means forcing yourself to create a video game in 48 hours under a theme that is always different from the previous one.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
To expand your network<\/h6>\n
During GameJams, we take the opportunity to learn from others as well and get to know each other as programmers and artists.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n [\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″]

Something to learn, whatever the platform (Unreal \/ Unity)<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n [vc_column_text uniqid=”5e176df2f4ff6″]It doesn’t matter if you win or lose, in these competitions, the important thing is to try and do your best ! During the WonderJam<\/strong> organized by UQAC<\/strong> (Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Chicoutimi), the members of the Squad4<\/strong> team and myself created the game Four For Fort<\/strong>, through which we play in multiplayer with his team against his opponents and whose objective is to finish the obstacles as quickly as possible. Once the finish line is done, the game ends and the team is declared the winner. You can follow in live the position of the opposing players to evaluate your own position.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″ css=”{“mobile_portrait“: {“margin-top“: “35“,“undefined“: “Effacer“},“mobile_landscape“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“},“tablet_portrait“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“},“tablet_landscape“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“},“desktop“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“}}”][vc_single_image image=”2636″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/3″ css=”{“mobile_portrait“: {“margin-top“: “55“,“undefined“: “Effacer“},“mobile_landscape“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“},“tablet_portrait“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“},“tablet_landscape“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“},“desktop“: {“undefined“: “Effacer“}}”][vc_single_image image=”2991″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″]
\n

How to achieve this in a limited amount of time ?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n [vc_column_text uniqid=”5e1775c1fa0e8″]To achieve a game in 48 hours in a team, you need organization, task management and time management. Although the competition is high, it is important to overcome this problem by sharing a state of mutual aid and collaboration. If you have this state of mind, you are made to work as a team!<\/p>\n

The goal here is to enjoy the moment with your group and friends, and no matter the timing, whether you are ahead or behind the others, stress will be felt on your work and therefore on the whole game.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

WonderJam - UQAC 2019<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n [vc_column_text uniqid=”5e178badbf965″]During the 2019 winter session, we participated in UQAC’s WonderJam whose theme was “pressure”. We therefore chose to create a competitive multiplayer game in which two teams compete against each other to finish the fighter’s course as quickly as possible. Four for Fort is a game that requires 4 players and is played in 2vs2, it requires a strong team spirit and a good resistance to the pressure of playing against the opposing team.[\/vc_column_text]

Team Building<\/h4>\n <\/div>\n [vc_single_image image=”3620″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]During the winter 2020 session, we participated in the Global Game Jam 2020 that took place in Montreal at the ETS. Indeed, the theme of this session allowed us to make a fun game, with several levels of difficulty through which the player must repair servers before they fail. In this way, we promoted team development and adaptation to everyone’s taste to make a game that makes everyone want to work on it.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3001″ img_size=”300×100″ alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” css_animation=”fadeIn” css=”.vc_custom_1600821849436{padding-top: 20px !important;}” link=”https:\/\/jamnation.ca”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3000″ img_size=”150×150″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″ onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” css_animation=”fadeIn” link=”http:\/\/mtlgj.org\/lang\/fr\/index.html”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″]
