This is the first game jam hosted on Itch.io for the Computer Science House! After a week of development, the games will be voted on and, after a week, prizes will be distributed (to eligible games).

Theme: It's Not Supposed To Do That!

Feel free to interpret this as loosely or as tightly as you see fit, as long as you can explain how the game fits the prompt and we can understand where you’re coming from, you’re good to go! Remember, the prompt is designed to be a limitation that sparks new ideas, so work with it! The limitations should spark new ideas, not make you lose your mind.

And finally, the prizes! Although misleading, these prizes are NOT the goal of the game jam. The goal should be to learn to make games, with the prizes being a neat treat at the end of the jam.

That said, here are the categories and their respective prizes

(Please note that only games made by CSH Members are eligible to recieve prizes)
