# Games

## Bevy Game jams

Most of the games developed for the jam are open source and are a great way to see some real world usage of the engine. Keep in mind that they are a bit harder to read than specific examples since they have the context of a more complex project. And they might not always be the best practices for writing code as game jams are relatively short and people often do nasty workarounds to meet the deadline.
