Inspiring Game Developers to Learn and Grow
At Informalecco, we believe that anyone can create video games, regardless of experience. You do not need years of coding or design behind you to get started. What you truly need is the right challenge and the right community to encourage you. That is exactly what we provide: a space where gamers and aspiring developers can learn, experiment, and push their limits.
Our Story
Since 2013, our founder has participated in numerous game development competitions and events. These experiences became a powerful source of motivation, proving that the fastest way to learn game design is by doing. Each challenge brings new lessons, new techniques, and new discoveries. Informalecco was built to share this journey and to help others realize that they too can take their first steps into video game creation.
One example of this process is the development of the independent game Super Francis World. A task like creating a UMG menu interface seemed easy to postpone. But during a competition, the challenge left no room to avoid it, and the skill was mastered. This is the power of structured challenges: they push you to learn what you otherwise might ignore.
Why Game Jams Matter
Game jams are not about competition. They are about growth, learning, and connection. By participating, you discover new tools, explore technologies, and meet other developers who share your struggles and passions. Even if the final game is imperfect or unfinished, the experience itself is transformative. The lessons you learn in 48 or 72 hours often outweigh months of independent study.
Informalecco encourages every aspiring developer to take part. Whether you join an online event like Ludum Dare or attend in-person global gatherings, you will gain confidence, sharpen your skills, and prove to yourself that you can build something real.
Building a Community of Creators
Every developer who has taken the leap with us has succeeded in creating a game. Many continue to develop, learn, and grow long after their first jam. At Informalecco, we are here to support you, inspire you, and remind you that you are capable of more than you imagine.
Your first project may be buggy or unpolished, but that does not matter. What matters is that you finish, you learn, and you keep going. Each step forward brings you closer to mastering the art of game development.
Our Mission
Informalecco exists to motivate, educate, and empower new generations of developers. We provide guidance, share experiences, and celebrate progress at every level. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced creator looking for fresh inspiration, this is the place to take your passion for gaming to the next stage.
