Theme
This art jam aims to celebrate the art of expression! Emojis are a mainstay of online expression facilitating clarity and communication.

And that's why the theme of this art jam is "DESIGN YOUR OWN EMOJI". Try to invent an emoji that narrates an emotion or a story. However, do not let the theme constrict your art and interpret it however you want.

  2. We do not allow work not made during the jam
  3. We promote any kind of art and dimensions(just make sure it can fit in itch.io)
  4. You are required to follow the theme for the jam.
  5. All types of art forms are allowed(digital, conventional)- we have no restrictions!

Voting

Our vote will be public after the jam for the consequent week after the deadline. On the 14th, we will release results and prizes!
