This years Theme is TIME!
Examples: Let your game play in the past or in the future.
Have a timer based game or let some tiny characters explore the insides of a clock.
Whatever. Be creative with this topic and have fun!


You must create a real Game Boy ROM,
only .gb (Game Boy) and .gbc (Game Boy Color) files are accepted.
Uploading a web release additionally is allowed to increase playability.
The whole game has to be made in the 7 days while the jam is running!

Only original games allowed, no remakes, demakes or romhacks.
No copyright violation!
No NSFW or offensive stuff! Be nice!
Teaming up is allowed!
It's ok to use assets (pieces of premade music or graphics) and templates (pieces of premade code),
but you have to tell everyone about it on your submission page!


Don't go too big and stick to schedule.

You can use RGBDS, WLA DX, GBDK, ZGB or GB STUDIO to create a Game Boy game.
Or anything else that will let you create a valid Game Boy ROM.


Time to celebrate, we got a sponsor now! :)
