Get ready for a frightfully funky jam. This is a jam that will last a little over a week to give you a decent chance to showcase your skills, which you'll need since this jam will contain a theme and a restriction. This jam will be offering a prize to the overall winner of the jam as well being showcased in a video on my YouTube channel.

I will also stream all the games entered on my YouTube channel. Depending on how many games are entered, this may not be completed before the voting period ends, but do not fear as this will not hurt your chances of winning the prize, which is a good Segway to the rules about the prize:

The way the winner of the prize will be selected is the top ten games from the voting will be verified by myself and with the help of some moderators.   This gives us time to verify that the rules were followed and no one rigged their entry to get into the top ten. The game selected by the judges will then be announced and given their prize.

The Prize: $20.00  USD Amazon Gift Card (you and your teammates will need to provide an email for me to send the prize to)

- 3rd party tools may be used, however, use common sense here, try not to pass off other's work as your own. 

- Games must be uploaded to itch.io (external site links will be disqualified).

- Do NOT submit android APK files.

(For best visibility upload a webGL build for ease of access, PC and MAC are the next best choices but webGL is HIGHLY recommended)

Jam host and mods reserve the right to disqualify games on the grounds of plagiarism,

cloning, excessive copying, unethical community behavior, or voter manipulation. 

-Respect each other. I know there is a prize involved but in the greater scheme of things, it's relatively small and not worth losing self respect/ respect of others or credibility over.
