CrazyGames is set to launch its thrilling Crazy Web Multiplayer Jam 2025, kicking off this week and running from April 25th to May 5th. This 10-day event, held in partnership with Photon, the leading multiplayer service provider, invites indie developers from around the globe to dive into the world of web-based multiplayer game development. Participants will have the chance to vie for a share of €10,000 in cash prizes, along with premium Photon licenses. These include:
- 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 requirements for the event are that games must be developed and submitted during the jam period and should adhere to PEGI 12 rating standards. Beyond these guidelines, developers are encouraged to unleash their creativity and innovate freely.
Since its inception in 2014, CrazyGames has grown to become the premier destination for free online gaming, utilizing HTML5, JavaScript, and WebGL technologies to deliver seamless browser-based gaming experiences across thousands of titles. In collaboration with Photon, CrazyGames will provide comprehensive support throughout the event, offering winning games the chance to be featured on their platform.
To kick things off, 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, shared his excitement, 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 great 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 skill levels. To learn more and to sign up, visit the official jam page.
