CrazyGames is excited to announce the launch of its Crazy Web Multiplayer Jam 2025, kicking off this week. This 10-day developer event, running from April 25th to May 5th, is a collaboration with Photon, the world's leading multiplayer service provider. The jam invites indie developers from around the globe to participate in this thrilling game development marathon focused on creating innovative web-based multiplayer games.
Participants will have the chance to compete for a share of €10,000 in cash prizes and premium Photon licenses, including:
- 500 CCU with Circle Starter for a year (€7,500 value)
- 500 CCU for a year (€1,500 value)
- 100 CCU for a year (€100 value)
The only strict rules for the event are that games must be developed and submitted during the jam period and adhere to PEGI 12 rating standards. Beyond these requirements, developers are encouraged to let their creativity soar and explore new ideas within the realm of multiplayer gaming.
Since its inception in 2014, CrazyGames has become the go-to platform for free online gaming, leveraging HTML5, JavaScript, and WebGI technologies to provide smooth, browser-based gaming experiences for thousands of titles. In partnership with Photon, CrazyGames will not only support the event but also offer the opportunity for winning games to be published on its platform.
To prepare for the jam, a pre-jam livestream will be hosted on YouTube and LinkedIn on April 24th at 4 pm CEST. This session will delve into two new WebGL platforms, Fusion and Quantum. Mark Val, Head of Growth at Photon Engine, emphasized the potential of these platforms, stating, "Photon has supported multiplayer WebGL for over a decade, and our new Fusion and Quantum samples let you create high-performant multiplayer games easily. We believe a WebGL game will be in the top 20 of the world’s most visited websites in the coming year, and the Crazy Web Multiplayer Jam 2025 is a good opportunity for everyone to innovate on the platform."
Registration for the Crazy Web Multiplayer Jam 2025 is free and open to game developers of all experience levels. For more information and to register, visit the official jam page.
