Fast Game Dev is a competition in which you're given a limited time to produce an original game based on a theme given by the Creativia crew. This is to ensure that all the games are fresh and that a significant amount of the work is done within the fast game dev time limit. For more information read the Fast Game Dev competition rules.
The theme for Fast Game Dev is: Time as a tool.
The Gathering Programming Competition is a series of challenges in various unrelated fields. This taxes the participants with various programming related tasks. You need to the C and C++ programming languages to solve these problems. For more info and rules, check out the TGPC competition rules.
