Can I submit a VN, or is that boring?

Jam Host(+2)

VN welcomed, we have an entire category of streamers doing VNs

Submitted (1 edit)

Hello! I have a question about the second rule: 

  • Please no realistic/current politics, let's make this a positive space

    If I`m going to submit a very personal VN story about forced migration, can I do it? MC escaped his country due to war, but I haven`t specified which country and due to which war exactly, because it's not necessary to the plot. My game is focusing on emotions, escapism and adaptation, not politics, and has mystic elements. Is such submission ok?

yeah that's fine look forward to seeing your VN

So the goal of this jam is to submit a game project and stream other submissions?

Host(+2)

The goal is to get player feedback for your game and support streamers while they play your game.  You can do both if you want, but most choose one to focus on.

In the dev suggestions, it says that to get the most out of the jam, you ought to contact some streamers who may be interested in similar genres to your game. What's the best way of doing this? I don't think itch.io or twitch have direct messaging, and I don't have many social media accounts.

Don't worry about that now - that was something for devs to do when the page was launched months ago..  If you are looking to reach out to streamers Discord and their individual twitch chats are usually the best way to show support.   Just get your game ready because submissions are due in about a week. Good luck!

Do you have discord? I encourage at least discord, and you can join to share your entry. 

Twitch does have direct message, you just need to have an account and type the name of the streamer into the chat before starting.
