How to Jam

Is this your first jam? Is it your hundredth? Either way, we've got loads of tips and tricks for you.

Slack Channel

We will be talking in the #gamedev channel of the devICT slack, get an invite here. Participants will be sharing screenshots, asking and answering questions, and posting tips to free assets, tutorials, and more. That's where the party is, you should be there!

Theme: You are not the hero

We realize this isn't ideal, but we also did not want to entirely skip 2020, so here are the details!

Details

• The Jam will last a week instead of two days.
• There will be no entrance fee
• There will be no community vote or community vote prize
• There will be a $100 prize for the winning team
• The winner will be chosen by a vote of the developer teams. One vote per team, much like the developer vote done at the last two jams.
• Because the event is online, you will be required to submit your game online to itch.io for judging and to be eligible for the prize money

Preparation

One thing you might go ahead and do is learn how to export games from your favorite game engine in a way that most people can play them. Web exports work well for anybody to play.

Questions

1. Will there be t-shirts?
Maybe? If enough of you want them, and we get the graphics together,  we will put together an order after the Jam.

2. Will there be stickers?
Hopefully! We are working on the graphics and an order.
