Crazy Games, Photon Kick Off 10-Day Global Web Multiplayer Jam 2025

CrazyGames is set to launch its exciting Crazy Web Multiplayer Jam 2025 from April 25th to May 5th, inviting indie developers worldwide to participate in this 10-day game development marathon. Partnering with Photon, the leading multiplayer service provider, the event is designed to spur the creation of innovative web-based multiplayer games. Developers can compete for a prize pool of €10,000 in cash and premium Photon licenses, which include:

• 500 CCU with Circle Starter for a year (valued at €7,500)
• 500 CCU for a year (valued at €1,500)
• 100 CCU for a year (valued at €100)

The only rules are that games must be developed and submitted during the jam and must adhere to PEGI 12 rating standards. Otherwise, participants have the creative freedom to explore and innovate.

Since its inception in 2014, CrazyGames has become a top destination for free online gaming, leveraging technologies like HTML5, JavaScript, and WebGI to deliver smooth, browser-based gaming experiences for thousands of titles. In collaboration with Photon, CrazyGames will support participants throughout the jam and offer winners the chance to have their games published on its platform.

To kick off the event, a pre-jam livestream is scheduled for April 24th at 4 pm CEST on YouTube and LinkedIn. This session will introduce two new WebGL platforms, Fusion and Quantum. Mark Val, Photon Engine’s Head of Growth, commented, "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 perfect opportunity for everyone to innovate on the platform."

Registration for the Crazy Web Multiplayer Jam 2025 is free and open to developers of all skill levels. For more information and to sign up, visit the official jam page.
