What is Duke Jam?

Duke Jam is a 2 week long game-making event hosted by DukeDevs, James Madison University's game development club!

The theme will be announced when the jam starts!

When can I join?

  • You can join any time before the jam end date!
  • If you cannot make the in-person events, no problem! You can participate and submit fully online.
  • You can work alone or in a team!
    • No limit to team size!
    • Only one person should submit per team, then add the rest of the members as contributors.

What can I make/use?

  • Any runnable format is allowed, as long as it runs in browser and/or on Windows.
  • Free art/music assets can be used if you have permission.
  • Reuse of pre-made code is allowed, but try to make a majority of your game during the jam period!

Submission Rules:

  • Your game must run, at minimum, on browser (in itch.io) or Windows
    • Your game shouldn't require any additional software/hardware.
    • Versions for multiple platforms are encouraged!
  • No hateful, discriminatory, or overly graphic content
  • Your game doesn't have to be in a "finished state!"
    • Uploading anything, even as a prototype, demo, or incomplete, is still a great accomplishment!

How to submit:

  1. Upload your game to itch.io like a regular game
  2. Make the game free and publish it (you can edit the game's page after submitting!)
  3. Come back to this page, click "Submit Your Project" and choose your game from the dropdown box
  4. To confirm your game was submitted, navigate to the game's page and check if a new badge was added
