Game Off 2026: The theme is SHIFT
From the official release
Game Off, GitHub’s annual month-long game jam, returns for its 14th year this November. Thousands of developers have joined us over the years to make everything from polished platformers to wonderfully weird experiments.
Whether you’re making your first game or your fiftieth, we’d love for you to join us.
The theme for Game Off 2026 is SHIFT!
Shift gears. Shift perspectives. Shift dimensions. Shift bits. Work the night shift. Or make a game where the only buttons are the Shift keys.
How you interpret the theme is entirely up to you.
You have until December 1, 2026, at 13:37 PST to build and submit a game inspired by SHIFT. Strong or loose inspirations apply!
