The Global Game Jam is returning to the University of Tulsa for the sixth year in a row, bringing together creators from around the world for a weekend of fast-paced, collaborative game making. Open to students and the public alike, it’s your chance to build games, meet creative teammates, and turn ideas into playable experiences.
TU students put their creativity to the test at the Back-to-School Game Jam, designing innovative escape room games in just 48 hours. From collaboration to rapid prototyping, the event offered a hands-on experience that’s perfect practice for the upcoming Global Game Jam.
Freshmen kicked off their TU journey by transforming simple shapes into imaginative 3D creations during Unbox Your Imagination in 3D. Guided by Professor Burris, students got hands-on experience with the same tools used in gaming and animation — and walked away with something they built themselves.
