This is a week-long game jam for the sole purpose of making a game for the GBA! Any submissions that are playable in a GBA emulator are accepted. Most people use mGBA to run .gba files.

Have a half finished game? Finish it for this jam! The point of this jam is to get motivation to finish a game. Wanna start a game for scratch and see what you can do in 1 week? Also great!

  • You can use any assets as long as you have the license for it! Link assets you use

Submissions

Anyone can submit a game as long as it runs on the GBA! Work in teams of any sizes, or even work solo. Everyone is welcome, from newbies to veterans!

ROM hacks are accepted BUT they will not be scored and cannot win the game jam! If you would like to make a ROM hack go for it, but make sure you know that if you wanted to try to win. The same goes for games that have prior work done on them before the jam. If you want to  finish a previous project, go for it! However, it will not be able to win the jam.
