Welcome to the 2026 Creator Collector Game Jam

       for this game jam you will be producing a creator collector or a Pokemon-like in the alloted time. this obviously doesent have to be as long as a regular Pokemon or Digimon game just like the first gym or boss. you can use tools like RPG maker or DSPRE but you cant have the game include actual Pokemon, this isnt about making a good rom-hack. but besides that the creature designs can be anything go crazy (just no NSFW).  it also doesent have to be a traditional RPG you could make it have a totally different battle system,  it counts if you can collect creatures.
