Welcome to the JellyJam!  Where we make games about our seiso alien princess, Jelly Hoshiumi!  Going at it solo, or with your fellow Starknights, make a game that Jelly would love to play in 10 days!  No pressure.

Guidelines & Clarifications

• Relevant to Jelly Hoshiumi - Your game must feature Jelly, aspects of her, her lore, or her Starknights in some capacity.  We reserve the right to remove games that fail to meet this criteria.
• No Team Restrictions - You can work alone, or with as many people as you can recruit under your flag.
• No Copyrighted Music - Jelly sometimes plays gamejam games on streams, so we'd like to avoid that potentially causing her issues.
• No Tool or Platform Restriction* - However, we do ask you make your game browser playable to avoid any risks for the Starknights (and possibly Jelly) who'll be doing the judging.
• No Monetization During Jam Period
• Pre-Made Assets - Ask for permission.  Any permission granted will be Jam wide approval, meaning everyone else may also use those same assets.

Judging Criteria

This game jam is all for fun.  This is just to add some friendly competition to the mix.

• Fun - Did you have fun playing the game?  Any sore points?
• Relevancy - How relevant is it to Jelly and her Starknights?
• Potential - Would you like to see this game developed further?  This is mainly here for the devs, sometimes they wonder if they should flesh out their games further.  Many are left, never touched again after a jam~
