During the Mechanic Jam, you will be given a term describing a game mechanic. Submissions will be open for 10 days, followed by a two-day voting period. 

During these 10 days, you will be tasked with creating a game centered around the described mechanic. Your goal is to implement the mechanic as creatively as possible. 

The mechanic for this jam is:

Fantasy Computer

A "fantasy computer" is a piece of software, such as a game, where the interface looks like that of a computer. Games with this aesthetic often relate to hacking, but other narratives can be told through the medium of a computer screen. An excellent example of this is Introversion Software's game, "Uplink". 

You cannot start working on your game until the 10-day submission period. After the submission period is over, a two-day voting period will take place, during which participants are encouraged to vote on each other's games. During the voting period, you will not be allowed to edit your submission.

Games will be judged on two criteria: Overall execution, and how creative your implementation is. There are no rewards for winners; voting is purely for fun.

Teams are allowed, but should ideally be no more than 5 people.
