New Jam for Tabletop Gaming Tools

Announcing the Tabletop Game Tool Jam

The Tabletop Game Tool Jam is for tools developed for tabletop game creators and game masters (GMs). A tool can be anything physical or digital that helps people create or run tabletop games. Tabletop games are physical games that are played offline - roleplaying games, board games, card games, etc.

This is a ranked jam, with some very cool prizes for the winning submission(s). The initial prize pack includes:

If you would like to contribute an additional prize (like access to your premium tools, for example) then please let me know by submitting this form! I'd like to have the full list of prizes finalised before the jam begins on 3 October 2023.

The primary purpose of this jam is twofold:

  1. To collect all the incredible tools that folks have created into one place
  2. To encourage people to be creative and build new tools

It is my hope that this jam is a huge success and it can become an annual jam to encourage further creativity and tool creation.

Check out the jam page for more details about how it works and what does or does not qualify as a tool, and for some ideas for inspiration: https://itch.io/jam/tabletop-game-tool-jam

The jam kicks off at 9pm UTC on 3 October and will be open for exactly 1 month. After it closes, all participants will be able to rate the submission to determine who will win the prize pack - rating will be open for 2 weeks.

I'm very excited to see what people submit!
