The Narrative Game Jam 2021 | AdventureX

AdventureX has been bringing together developers & gamers with a passion for interactive storytelling since 2011. In 2020 we held AdvXJam for the first time, and the jam is back for 2021. AdvXJam2021 is a two-week game jam for narrative games running from Nov 13th to Nov 27th.

The Theme is: CONTACT

Feel free to interpret the theme in any way you choose. Think of it as a springboard to get you started - where you go next is up to you.

The Rules

The rules are pretty simple - make a narrative game in 2 weeks! This a non-ranked game jam! We want to encourage indie developers, not pick winners. (Remember to sleep and eat, even when the deadline approaches!)

We're very open-minded about what constitutes a narrative game. All genres, styles and game engines are welcome, and we encourage participants to get involved regardless of background or experience level. You can submit a game as an individual or as a team. Participants may reuse existing assets, but we encourage you to create something new for the jam. 

The AdventureX Code of Conduct means that we won't tolerate hateful content either as part of the game jam, or on our communication channels. We think video games should be for everyone.

About AdventureX

AdventureX is the UK's only convention dedicated to narrative-driven gaming. Over nearly a decade we've exhibited hundreds of indie games, encompassing everything from retro pixel-hunts to rich, branching narratives. We've hosted talks from Ragnar Tørnquist, Rhianna Pratchett, Dave Gilbert, Meg Jayanth and many other devs and creators. 

AdventureX is a celebration of creativity, indie development and geek culture. Follow us on:
