> Rules

  • All work must be completely original for this jam
  • You can work solo or in a team of up to 3 people. Note that if a team wins, the prize money would be for the entire team, not each individuals. 1 individual will have to be designated to receive it.
  • You can submit multiple times, the more games being made the happier we are :-D
  • Aside from a name, ensure your entries got instructions on how to play. It's super cool to share your source code too
  • Only use pre-made assets that you have permission to use!
    • Check the license and copyright
    • Give credit if needed. If not needed, consider giving credit because it's helps the artists
  • No new submissions or updates are allowed when the judging period has started.  We'll make an exception if the update fixes game breaking bugs. Reach out to an admin about your situation.
  • No NSFW content allowed!
  • No form of harassment or discrimination will be tolerated during this jam
  • All submissions must come through itch.io 
  • All games must be free to play, any option to receive money can be enabled after the jam is over (this includes the judging period)
  • The use of AI generated art assets is allowed, however, you must disclose if you did use AI, and to what extent.

> Judging Criteria

Games will be ranked with these criteria (in no order):

  • Fun factor
  • Creativity - Use of Theme and Originality
  • Aesthetics
  • Sound

> What can I use to build it?

Anything, we don't care. Godot, Unity, Unreal,  Assembly, Game Maker, Raylib, GDevelop  - once you share a playable game it's all good. And feel free to ask for advice on the Discord channel.

Try  to export to the major desktop/mobile platforms as you can. HTML5 exports allow for almost anyone to play your game.

> How do I actually make a game for this jam?

The old adage holds true - different strokes for different folks. However, given that it's 9 days, time management is key! Plan for about 3 days of work out of the 9, see what the essential things are. If things roll over, you got 6 more days so you should be OK! If you accomplish your MVP, then great, you can spice it up in another 1/2 day iteration! The best advice is to work on the most important things so that you have a working game as soon as possible.

Also, take note of the criteria. Cater for all facets of your game in the project's time frame!

> Community
