Introduction
GameJams are a kind of hackaton dedicated to develop games. According to Spieler et al. (2016), [1], “Game jams are a way to create games under fast-paced conditions and certain constraints (Eberhardt, 2016; Deen, et al., 2014).”
Game jams enjoy increasing popularity in school and university settings. Their aim is different, i.e. focuses on learning something, e.g. programming, design, art, collaboration, etc. and typically use educational programming environments such as visual block languages like scratch or snap!. “Academic game jams are a kind of project work that fosters collaboration and at the same time results in understanding learning content from different subjects (Chandrasekaran, et al., 2012).” <ref="spieler2018">
