Who may enter?

Any Game Gen student or teacher may enter! You'll need an itch.io account to join and submit your entry.

If you need help with that, check out our itch.io lessons or ask a Game Gen teacher.

What may I submit?

You may submit games playable in the browser. Export them as either HTML5 or WebGL.

Your game must be created within the 24-hour period of the jam. Premade assets are acceptable.

How will the entries be judged?

Entries will be judged by the following:

• GAMEPLAY (does the game feel complete and fun to play?)
• ART DIRECTION (are the visuals pleasing and work well with the game?)
• SOUND DESIGN (are the sounds pleasing and work well with the game?)
• CREATIVITY (does it build on the theme and make good use of the twist?)
• ORIGINALITY (have you not seen this kind of gameplay before?)
• PRESENTATION (does the game page look professionally complete?)

An overall ranking is determined by these factors. Do your best to get high marks on all of these categories!

Who may vote?

Anyone may vote! Of course, you'll need an itch.io account to vote.

If you need help with that, check out our itch.io lessons or ask a Game Gen teacher.
