🎮 PIXEL-DECK JAM #1

Small Games. Big Pixels.

Welcome to the very first Pixel-Deck Game Jam!

Pixel-Deck is a growing community for pixel artists, game developers and people who simply love pixel art.

For our first ever jam, we're keeping things simple:

You have 7 days to create a game based on a secret theme.

Solo developers and teams are welcome.

Godot? Unity? GameMaker? Unreal? Your own questionable engine held together by duct tape?

We don't care. 😄

Just make something.

📡 THEME

????

The theme will be revealed when the jam begins.

Interpret it however you want.

Serious.

Funny.

Beautiful.

Terrifying.

Completely ridiculous.

Surprise us.

🏆 PRIZES

🥇 Best Overall — €30

🎨 Best Pixel Art — €10

💡 Most Creative — €10

❤️ Community Choice Award

Winners will also receive special Pixel-Deck badges, Discord roles and a permanent showcase inside the Pixel-Deck Grand Museum.

🎨 WHO CAN JOIN?

Everyone.

You do not have to already be part of Pixel-Deck.

Beginners are especially welcome.

Never made a game before?

Perfect.

Use this as an excuse to finally make one.
