Ludum Dare #60

When is the next Ludum Dare?

The next Ludum Dare – Ludum Dare #60 (LD60) – is expected in October 2026. Ludum Dare traditionally runs twice a year, in April and October. The exact start date and the theme will be announced closer to the event.

What is Ludum Dare?

Ludum Dare is one of the world’s largest and longest-running online game jams, held since 2002: participants build a game from scratch in 48 or 72 hours around a single theme. While you wait, browse every past Ludum Dare or explore the games of Ludum Dare 59.

ldjam.com is down – what if it’s not back by October?

Then we’ll figure something out ourselves – the jam will happen either way. Follow me on X (Twitter) or join the Discord – I’ll post an update closer to October.
