This is Dev League

Season 1 | Round 3/10

Round 3 Theme: Containment

You'll need to quickly register before you can join the league.


What is Dev League?

Dev League is league based competition played out over the course of 10 rounds. Every 2 weeks you'll have a 24 hour window to create and submit a game based on a theme. You'll receive points based on your ranking in the Jam and those points will be tallied up over the course of the season.

Do I have to participate in all the rounds?

No, it's really up to you. Each round gives you the opportunity to earn points, if you decide not to participate you'll just earn 0 points for that round. You must however compete and submit a game to at least 1 of the 10 rounds or you'll be automatically relegated to the Rat Race next season.

How is the competition scored?

After the submission window there will be a 1 week voting period which is open to everyone, not just contributors, anyone with an itch.io account will be able to vote on your game. Once the voting ends you'll receive points based on where you rank.

Your points will reflect your position in the league. After all rounds have been played the winner of division 1 will be crowned the champion of Dev Leagues. Promotion and relegation will take place in the lower leagues. 

LEAGUE STANDING

Here's how the league stacks up after 2 rounds.



How do I join Dev Leagues?

You'll need to add yourself the super quick and easy register before you can join the league. There are 6 Divisions, once registered you'll be added to the next available place in the division. If all divisions are full you'll join the Rat Race, a much larger division where only the top 3 will earn a place in the divisions next season. You can join at any time but the later you join the less time you'll have to win points.

You'll retain your league position each season after you've joined but if you failed to participate you'll naturally fall down the rankings until you are relegated from the lowest division. 

What if I get relegated?

If you are in division 1 through 5 you'll simply move to the lower division next season. If you are relegated from division 6 you'll join the Rat Race division and have to fight for your chance to return to Dev League next season.

How often does Dev League run?

Dev League will run from July until November each year with a game jam taking place every 2 weeks where you'll be able to earn points.

Can I join as part of a team?

Yes, teams are welcome to participate. 

Where can I view my league position?

After round 1 the league positions will posted in every jam page. I'll also be publishing them on Discord (Link at the bottom) and Twitter (link at the bottom). I will also be making videos that will be posted onto my YouTube channel during the season.

Is there a prize for winning Dev League?

If you finish in the top 3 in divisions 2-6 you'll be promoted to the division above for the next season. If you win division 1 you'll win an official Dev League Winners Hoodie.
