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. 

How is the competition scored?

After the submission window there will be a 5 day 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.
