Longgame Tech Innovation Jams are about helping you develop fun and interesting game mechanics that you can use later in other games.

The jam focus for LTIJ8 is a portal mechanic. This can mean whatever you want! It's simply some inspiration. Portals in 2d are still portals!

Don't feel pressured to make something super intricate or polished; it's more about having time to craft something you find interesting.

This game jam is about developing fun and interesting mechanics, promoting and encouraging Lisp, and public sharing of art.
