We are excited to announce that Bintulu's first-ever Global Game Jam successfully brought together 10 participants, resulting in the creation of 4 game submissions!

This 48-hour global game development hackathon provided an excellent opportunity for Bintulu's developers to gain exposure to an international-level event, while also offering hands-on experience in creating video games from scratch and fostering teamwork skills!

A special thank you to the students from UPM, UTS, Unimas, and MMU for participating, and heartfelt gratitude to DeskSpace, TEGAS, Moredoor Interactive, Kloena Digital, and CtrlD Studio for their invaluable support in making this event possible!

Global Game Jam 2025 - DeskSpace Bintulu

10/01/2025

DeskSpace, located on Level 4 of City Point Mall in Bintulu, Sarawak, Malaysia, is hosting an exciting on-premise game jam! To participate, please complete the application form here: https://forms.gle/stvrX6qbs3D2bwPz8.

Ahead of the game jam, we will hold a short game development course. By filling out the form, you help us estimate attendance for both the course and the game jam, as well as prepare the required number of access cards for DeskSpace. While DeskSpace operates 24/7, access cards are essential for security. If you’re unable to attend in person, please indicate this in the form. You’re welcome to join us on our Discord channel, but we highly encourage you to attend the course or be there for the event’s opening day if possible.

This event marks Bintulu’s first on-premise game jam, and we’re thrilled to bring together local game developers to foster a vibrant game development community. Let’s make your presence known and build something amazing together!

Important Notes for Participants:

Bring your own laptop equipped with the necessary tools (e.g., game engine, graphic editor, music composer, etc.).
If you plan to stay overnight during the final 48 hours, feel free to bring snacks (we also provide snacks throughout the event) and a sleeping bag/bean bag/camping bed/lazy chair. Staying overnight is optional, but it enhances the fun and fosters a great collaborative atmosphere, especially when working with a team.
DeskSpace provides water dispensers, restrooms, and ample rooms for your team to use as workspaces, but note that there are no shower facilities.
