Welcome to the Platformer Game Jam!
This jam is all about creating a unique platformer in ONE WEEK.
Whether it's physics-based like Sonic, a rage game like I Wanna Be The Guy,
a sidescroller, 3D, or even top-down if it plays like a platformer, it counts!
The jam starts when the theme is revealed.
Your game must incorporate the theme in some way.
Once the jam ends, games will be rated by fellow participants.
You’ll play, rate, and give feedback to help everyone improve
Never made a platformer before? No worries!
This is the perfect opportunity to experiment and learn.
Even unfinished games are welcome experience matters more than perfection.
Yes! Teaming up is encouraged.
There’s no limit on team size, but smaller teams are recommended for easier collaboration.
