Decker Fantasy Camp 2026

Decker Fantasy Camp 2026 is a game jam hosted on itch.io, inviting participants to create games inspired by 1980s cyberpunk and hacker aesthetics. The event encourages submissions that explore themes of hacking, digital worlds, and retro-futurism.

Background

- **Decker Fantasy Camp** is a recurring game jam on itch.io (a popular indie game marketplace). Participants make small games over a short period, usually around a specific theme or restriction. The 2026 edition likely follows the same format. - The term "Decker" references the character class from the tabletop RPG *Shadowrun*—a hacker/cyberpunk archetype who navigates digital "matrix" spaces. This suggests the jam focuses on cyberpunk, hacking, or computer-themed games. - itch.io game jams are community-driven events where developers, often solo or in small teams, create and share free or low-cost games. Past editions of Decker Fantasy Camp have produced notable indie titles like *Uplink* and *Hacknet*-style sims.
