Join Seattle Humane for our very first game jam! Our jam is focused on celebrating pets and the people who love them through gaming. We are hosting a game jam where anyone of any skill level can create a game around the theme of “pets and the people who love them.” Completed games will be invited to a bundle sale of their game with a portion of the proceeds benefiting Seattle Humane.
Theme
Pets and the people who love them
Rules
- Match the theme of “pets and the people who love them.”
- Games containing 18+ content are not allowed!
- You can use any tools or assets you like as long as they are your own or you own a license to use them.
All About Game Jam
You can make a video game, music, a piece of art, an original story, or even a table top game – ANYTHING creative!
You can create a game alone or as a team. The only requirement is that the game should use the jam theme. It is preferred that your game can be played in the browser. You can create a game on any game engine (unity, godot, unreal engine, game maker or others) or just write a game in any programming language. Pixel graphics can be drawn almost anywhere, for example, even in MS Paint. You can also create a game in any language.
By joining the jam, you are expected to put your game up for sale at a reasonable price at the end of the challenge, with 10% of proceeds going to Seattle Humane to support pets in our community.
