Welcome to GDDC's 2nd Game Jam!
You have 2 days to make a game. You can use any game engine/ programming language. If you have a team with programmers, you can use GitHub to ensure everyone is "up-to-date" with the code. If you are creating a paper prototype or a non-digital game, you can upload several images as your project (must include some sort of rulebook).
Theme:
'Knowledge is Weakness'
👥 Teams: We believe that teamwork is the key to success in game development. Therefore, we encourage forming teams of members who will work together on projects and enhance their skills.
Rules:
- Your game must be original; no pre-made games
- Each game must relate to the theme
- You may join more than one team
- No AI of any kind
- You can use any pre-made scripts and assets (non-paid only), but make sure to credit the assets you used if they aren't yours!
- Working with a team is highly recommended and you may find other team members outside of the discord, but please credit everyone appropriately somewhere within your game
- Do not use any NSFW or offensive content
