Jiggle Jam
Hosted by: Freedom Forge Studios
Note: this page is still a work in progress. Updates may happen up until start of the Jam.
SFW ONLY! Keep it PG-13, though subtle, innuendos are welcome!
With the release of Godot 4.4 the GREATEST tool has been added to our favorite game engine... The Jiggle Bone. There's just one major problem. When the Jiggle Bone was added, there was a CRUCIAL spelling mistake made. They called it, the "SpringBoneSimulator3D" instead of the "JiggleBone3D." In an effort to rectify this crucial error and showcase the power and beauty of this new tool, this jam revolves all around using the "SpringBoneSimulator3D" along with any other implementations of "Jiggle Physics."
Open to all skill levels—from beginners to pros—this jam is about creativity and fun. Whether you’re new to 3D or a seasoned developer, experiment with the JiggleBone’s mechanics, build something entertaining, and share it with the community!
