ICYMI: After a successful inaugural Just Play event, we are thrilled to announce our next iteration in this movement. Just Play: A Game Jam for Climate Futures challenges creators to explore the future of our planet through interactive media. Our world is changing at an unprecedented rate, and in order to mitigate the effects of climate change, we need collective action. Climate change impacts not only the environment, but also the health, safety and well-being of billions of people across the globe. The visibility of stories that highlight global warming's impact on humanity, especially the most vulnerable individuals, can aid in shaping narratives about climate change that promote immediate structural change. Video games offer a unique and immense platform to share these stories. There is a $10k grand prize for the jam, and select finalists will be invited to showcase at the Hollywood Climate Summit closing night party in the Samuel Goldwyn Theater at Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences HQ in Los Angeles on June 28, 2024. Massive thanks to our partner Cinereach for continued collaboration and thought behind creating a toolkit for our participants! Thank you to Variety for the feature!
