Welcome to the Aristos Interactive Game Jam #9!

Description

Want to see others playing your game?

At the end of this jam, the Aristos team plays the games and uploads a video to YouTube celebrating your hard work!

This beginner-friendly jam is all about creating a fun, playable game you’re proud to show off. Over the course of the weekend, challenge yourself to build a simple but engaging gameplay loop, something that feels good, something that exists because you made it.

All tools are welcome. AI assistance is welcome. Premade assets are welcome.

What matters most is finishing a playable experience and learning along the way.

Fortes fortuna adiuvat.
