PowerJam3 - PowerQuest Parser Jam!

Time to make another game with PowerQuest! Don't you go and get fancy and try to make anything good, just get something out!


Itch is handy for managing this stuff, but really the home for the jam is on the Powerhoof Discord

For some inspiration, check out the games from last jams here-

Rules:

  • Make a game in PowerQuest- Point 'n click adventure is the obvious genre choice since that's what it's for!
  • Make it yourself- Make everything during the week, slap some art together yourself, code it up. Can always add stuff post-jam if you can't manage it during. 
  • Theme: PARSER JAM!!  (PS. No one cares if you don't use the theme)  

Suggestions:

  • One room - This is about being quick folks! If you think you have time for extra scenes for closeups/title screens/etc go for it, but keep it to 1 location!
  • Do it yourself - Solo is best, if you need a hand from a buddy, go for it, but avoid large teams, it's about making stuff yourself!
  • Skip the AI generated art and smash out your own masterpiece in MS Paint. We'll love you more for it.
  • Feel free to slap something together in a few hours just before the deadline, its about making something, no matter how small or silly!
  • Use the template GUIs, custom guis are a time sink, time better spent on your game.
  • If you don't wanna submit to itch, just post a build on the discord.

Voting:

  • We'll organise on the discord like last time, just DM me on discord with your fav game from each category and then I'll just tally up and announce the winners.
  • Categories are:
    • Best Game
    • Best Writing
    • Best Art
    • Best Scripting
    • Best Audio
    • The Magnum Opus Award (for Smallest Scope)
    • SucculentBacon Birthday Award (for it being his Birthday during the jam)
