About Us

The Game Development Student Society of McGill University is a club for students who love making games, regardless of experience level. We organize monthly game jams, host workshops and tech talks, and maintain industry relations with Montreal's vibrant video game industry. For more information on the club, check out our website at https://www.gamedevmcgill.ca/.

We also organize our own 48-hour game jam every March. McGameJam is one of the biggest events of its kind in Montreal, and has been a resounding success for the past five years. To see all the entries from our past two game jams, check out the Jam's page here.
