Get your game on with the GitHub Game Off!

Get ready to get busy with the annual GitHub Game Off. That’s right, the internet’s largest git repository is back with one of the year’s largest game jams and you’re invited to take part. Get your game-making hat on because starting with the theme announcement on November 1st at 1:37 PM PDT, you’ve got 30 days to create your new favorite game.

Last year’s Game Off inspired over 200 games with its theme of “throwback” and we’re excited to see what the community comes up with this time. Just like last year you can submit and play all of the games right here on itch.io! Check out the official jam page and get ready to create or play the entries as they come in.

If you’re concerned about taxing requirements for the jam: don’t be! Your entry can be in any engine or language, and you can work as much or as little as you like during the jam. The GitHub Game Off is set to be one of the most approachable jams of the year, so don’t be afraid to jump in.

The GitHub Game Off starts on November 1st at 1:37 pm PDT.
