    Dance Na Mimi is a vibrant, fun experience that invites you to explore Kenya’s rich cultural tapestry through music, movement, and greetings. Kenya is home to 43 unique tribes, each with its own language, dance styles, and ways of saying hello. In Dance Na Mimi, you’ll learn how different communities greet each other, what their dances look like, and what makes each tribe special all through interactive, playful storytelling and rhythm-based games. From the energetic Isukuti of the Luhya, to the elegant Adumu of the Maasai, and the celebratory Ramogi of the Luo, each level is a gateway into the spirit of Kenyan communities. Let’s celebrate diversity, learn local phrases, and dance with the whole of Kenya Dance Na Mimi!

    What is the timeline for games to be judged and prizes to be awarded? An early response will be much appreciated.

    1. Max Musau@snape254Host

      Hi Victor, yes, you can work solo, and yes, you can use previously created individual assets; however, the idea has to be something new that you have never worked on before. Yes, there is a Discord server that will be shared in a few hours.

    2. Max Musau@snape254Host

      The Jam is open to all African countries! After the Jam, the Judges will have one day to judge the games, and the awards will be announced the next day, Monday, 9th June.

      1. Victor@vabadunnii

        Noted. Thank you for the prompt response.

  2. Victor@vabadunnii

    If we have to work in teams, how do we form teams? Can previous game assets be used in the game we submit? What platforms are we developing for? Is the game jam for all African nations? Is there a discord server for the jam?

  3. Victor@vabadunnii

    Hello, Organizing Team. Season greetings. My name is Victor, a participant of the 48 hours jam. I have a number of questions about the game jam as there seems to be insufficient information. Can we work solo or we have to be in teams?
