Around 4-5pm Sunday Afternoon (based on number of entrants) we will have judges come around to play all of the games
At the end of the event awards will be handed out to the top games

General Information:
There will be a theme announced on Friday at the beginning of the event and teams will need to create a game based on that theme
Use whatever tools, software, game making software that you are most comfortable with (Unity is the best Game Engine to use but use whatever works for you)
You will need to bring your own computer, wacom tablets, paper, pencils, coffee, food, snacks, etc…
