Get LÖVE, it's a game framework

Rules

  • Your game MUST be made with the LÖVE framework.
    Your game must work with an official version of LÖVE (nightlies are allowed).
    Ports of LÖVE, frameworks based on LÖVE, or any other engine/framework are NOT allowed.
    You can upload additional builds using ports as long as there is a version that can run with an official LÖVE version.
  • NSFW / mature / sensitive content MUST be properly disclosed.
    If your game features such content there should be a warning in the description and/or when the game first loads up.
    There may be minors playing your game so please be mindful.
  • AI usage is NOT allowed.
    AI usage goes against the spirit of the jam. The reasons include copyright infringement and plagiarism over training data and environmental impact of this technology.
  • The game must be made during the jam.
    You may use basecode and libraries made before the jam.
    Games made before the jam are not basecode, and go against the spirit of the jam.
  • Images, music, and other assets must be made during the jam.
    Your game MUST include a list of pre-made assets used, giving credit to their author (including those made by you before the jam period). If you can't make assets yourself team up with an artist or a musician.
    Voters are encouraged to favor games that feature assets made during the jam over those that don't.
  • You can work alone or as a team. Find teammates in our Discord!
    There is no restriction team size, but larger teams are harder to organize, so 2/4 works best.
  • The jam runs for 10 days, this is to allow more people to participate.
    Use as much time as you need. Some games have been made in under 8 hours, so don’t feel discouraged if you can’t spend much time.
  • Do it for the fun and the experience.
    Even though the jam is rated, the most important thing is to enjoy the challenge.

Theme

The theme for this jam is optional and will be announced before the jam starts. You will receive an email and it will also be announced on Discord.

The theme exists to spark ideas and creativity. If you don't like it, we still hope you join the jam without including the theme as part of your game.
