GDL - March Madness Jam
Welcome to the 20th GDL Game Jam!
Thanks to everyone who gets involved with our jams, we love seeing the stuff you create and are so happy to be encouraging developers to just make something exist. One of the hardest parts of Game Developing is just making something, Putting it out there for all the world to see, it can be so daunting, But remember developing games is a skill just like any other, It can be learned, It can be repeated and you will improve over time.
The fastest way to improve is to train! Make something every chance you get and that's where these game jams come in. The purpose of the GDL Game Jams are not about the prizes, I put those up just to create an extra incentive for those who need that extra push, The point is just to get you making something. Dreaming up an idea, Putting those ideas into actionable steps and following through. Only by first creating something, can we then make a hypothesis on how to improve it and take steps to implement those improvements. So what are you waiting for? Register for the Game Jam and start improving your skills.
Incremental game time! make a game about making numbers higher! think cookie clicker, clicker heroes or any sort of incremental game!
Now I don't like to make these jams about the prizes as i think you are a winner just for getting involved and making something. However sometimes we need that little extra push, So I am glad to provide some small prizes to the winners if it helps to motivate you.
Top 3 places will be rewarded with awesome special roles in the Discord Server!
