TW: This game jam may be triggering as it may relate to global events occurring in the present day. The content of post-apocalyptic games are usually heavy, with themes of great loss of life and of nature in tow. Please don't feel the need, however, to be constrained to dark themes: human hope and change is a powerful theme in post-apocalyptic literature and art!

Welcome to the 6th monthly game jam that will be hosted on my itch.io page!

In this game jam, your objective is to create a game where apocalypses of any kind are the main focus. What does that mean?

Well, you could create a game where it's a fallout-style post apocalypse with mutated creatures, or you could create a Waterworld or Wind Waker styled game where climate changed has permanently altered the world, or you could create a game where the apocalypse actually gives humanity hope for a brighter future to learn from the sins of the past. It's up to you!

Your games can be tabletop games OR digital games. Anything that gets your mind in the realm of game design is all that matters to me! 

IMPORTANT: All games made at any point in time are allowed, but it is HIGHLY encouraged to make games only while this game jam is active. This is a chance to exercise your creative skills AND join a game jam, not just one or the other!

ALSO IMPORTANT: Under no circumstances are people who submit games with bigoted tones, ideologies, or dogwhistles allowed in this game jam. If your work is bigoted in any way, it can and will be rejected for submission. You have no place in my community, and please do not play my games at your tables. Also, please no NSFW submissions (you know what I mean by that).  

(This is part of a game jam series where, every month, I will host a game jam focused on a theme that begins with the same letter as the month. Please feel free, even after the game jam ends, to make your game if you didn’t meet the deadline. I believe in you!)
