This jam is now over. It ran from 2024-07-01 05:25:00 to 2024-08-05 05:25:00. View 1 entry
Our lives are filled with many simple activities, repetitive routines, and small interactions. It's easy to dismiss these things as the boring stuff that fills the space between our memories. Luckily, the right creativity and attention can make anything interesting.
This jam is a challenge to use your magical power as a game designer and transmute something mundane into something engaging. I want you to take some aspect of your everyday life and then make a cool game from it. That's it, that's the entire jam!
Maybe you want to try to find the fun in something you consider boring. Maybe you want to take the time to appreciate the minor joys in your life. Maybe you want to show how something most people consider trivial is actually a struggle for you.
Do whatever you want as long as you feel you're following the spirit of the jam.
-Guidelines-
Make any kind of game: Videogames, Boardgames, TTRPGs, a fourth more sinister thing... the possibilities are endless! Challenging whether someone else made a "game" is prohibited.
You are highly encouraged to draw from your own life: I promise that your personal experiences are valuable and worth sharing.
You may collaborate with anyone, spend any amount of time on your project, use existing assets, recycle work from your past self, et cetera : This jam is intended as an invitation to make something awesome, not as a competition or strict set of constraints. There will be no ranking
Submit something that you specifically made for this jam: I'm intentionally being loose with all the traditional jam constraints, but this one is really important to me
Don't invalidate or dismiss anyone's identities, work or experiences.
I look forward to seeing any submissions to this :)
