Welcome to the Conduit Summer Game Jam!

Hosted by ConduitGaming.com—the social platform for the gaming world—this month-long jam challenges you to push your skills and create high-quality, polished games. Whether you are a veteran developer or a complete newcomer, our community is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and excited to see what you build!

🧩 The Theme: Opposites Attract

For this jam, teams must combine two completely different game genres into one cohesive experience. Think Rhythm-Stealth, Horror-Cooking, or Turn-Based Racing. We are looking for clever mashups that elegantly blend contrasting mechanics and styles into something totally unique.

🏆 Prizes

We are thrilled to offer a cash prize pool for our top developers!

• 1st Place: $200 USD
• 2nd Place: $100 USD
• 3rd Place: $50 USD

📊 Judging Criteria

Because you have a full month to develop, we are looking for high-quality entries that go beyond a standard weekend prototype. Submissions will be heavily judged on:

• Theme Adherence: How creatively and successfully did you merge your two contrasting genres?
• Artistic Quality: The visual polish, audio design, user interface, and overall aesthetic cohesiveness of the game.

📜 Rules & Requirements

Please read carefully to ensure your game is eligible for judging and prizes!

• Dual Submission Rule: ALL entries MUST be posted on both itch.io AND ConduitGaming.com.
• Generative AI Policy: Generative AI may be used as an assistant for coding, but cannot be used for generating game assets (no AI art, no AI audio, no AI music). We want to see human creativity!
• Content Restrictions: Games must NOT be sexually explicit.
• Zero Tolerance for Hate: Games must NOT contain any hate speech or discriminatory content. We pride ourselves on being a safe and inclusive community.

Grab your team, pick your genres, and start building. Good luck, and have fun!
