Because Epic is going all out on this Game Jam we are too! So go to the link below and check out all the rules for submitting to Epic. For our Meetup, if you can’t bring in your machine with game, bring in a link to get it.

Bring in your game jam submission for a chance to win a Leap Motion device!

Then submit to Epic for a chance to win even more prizes!

**THE RULES **
Work alone or with a team (up to 5 members) to make the most incredible project based on the theme (revealed Oct 8th on Twitch) in Unreal Engine 4, and submit before the deadline.

PROJECT REQUIREMENTS

The game must not be an obvious extension of one of Epic Games’ official Unreal Engine tutorials. The game must include custom gameplay that exceeds that found in Epic Games’ starter templates. All art assets in the game must have a material other than the default applied to it.

**TIMELINE AND SUBMISSION **
In Unreal Engine game jam tradition, we’ll be kicking this one off and announcing the theme on the livestream on October 8 and giving participants an entire week to create and submit an awesome game built in the engine.
