Gamebadges project started at the beginning of February 2024. In our first 11 months, Gamebadges has been visiting events like Devcom, Game Industry Conference (GIC) and Game Developers Conference (GDS), but our partners have also been introducing our projects in different setups as well.
Our project partner’s David Šosvald organised GDS Prague Game Jam, which is a 48h game jam that took place in the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics at Charles University. The game jam had both students and game industry professionals present. David presented the project for participants, including students and game industry professionals, what the Gamebadges project is about, and especially what is in it for students. To mention a few points of his presentation, the competence map Gamebadges project is right now updating, supports students as a tool to get information about the skill requirements of their dream jobs, and open badges we will be creating to support them in job search as they provide evaluated proof of their skills.
And of course, as it was a game jam, participants created games – check them out here.
