WHAT IS MACRO JAM?

Macro Jam is a beginner friendly Game Jam that lasts 96-hours and is held on the first week of every month. In this Jam you have to create a game that follows the theme, which will be revealed once the Jam starts. The theme can be voted and suggested in the Discord Server.

During the submission window you can play and vote other peoples' games, and 3 days after, the rankings will be out. After the submission window closes you still have until the end of the voting period to submit a late submission, which you can do by messaging the staff in the Community Discord Server.
