Butwal at September 27th & 28th

Daydream Hack Club

Game jam for high schoolers

Organized by Butwal Hacks

Dear Hackers, Musicians, and Artist,

Welcome to Hack Club's latest adventure! This fall, we’re calling all Hack Clubbers, club leaders, and creative coders to join Daydream—the world’s biggest Game Jam, shipping simultaneously in 100 cities.

Hack Clubbers everywhere: it’s time to ship your game this fall.

Never shipped a game before? No worries—our workshops (both on Slack and IRL) will help you go from Sprig to demo day. Whether you’re a club captain, a first-time hacker, or a Zach meme connoisseur, you’ll find your crew here.

This fall, join us to learn new skills, ship something you’re proud of, collect stickers, earn streaks, and make lifelong friends on this epic Hack Club journey.

With love & high fives,

Butwal Hacks

What will you Dream?

You can make any game you want as long as it can be deployed on itch.io! All games made must be deployed and available online for other participants to play and experience. We will only accept itch.io submission links.

Here are some cool projects from past hackathons to get you inspired:

We'll have workshops and activities before Daydream to help you learn game development using Godot!
