This is a new type of game-jam that involves both gamedevs and streamers in the contest.

The competition starts with the game developers. Their job is to create a game with a high-score feature within a 72 hour period. Once the time runs out, the games are judged by participants, streamers, and hosts. After the top three games are chosen, the torch is passed to the streamers.

The second part of the competition is for game streamers. The goal for the streamers is to get a highscore in one of the top three games in 24 hours. Once the time runs out the streamers submit their recording, and the players who achieve the highest score in each game win.

All games must include a leaderboard system (offline or online) so that the players can compete for the highscore if you happen to win the contest.

You can make the game on your own or in a team of up to 4 people. You can find other people to team up with on our Discord.

All game engines are allowed!

Games that are NSFW should have a warning in the description or when the game first loads up.

You and your team are encouraged to make everything from scratch during the event. If you use any pre-made assets you must list them in the description of the game.

All games submitted must be digital games that can be played on Web, Windows, Linux, or Mac. (It's easier for people to play Web games)

The games will be chosen by developers who participated in the jam, streamers, and the ScoreSpace Staff.

The Developer's Choice is the award that is given to the developers top rated game from the jam. The developers vote based on the categories below. (1st)

Gameplay: How did the game flow, did it have tight controls, what was your experience while playing
Theme: How well did the entry stick to the theme, did you like their interpretation of it
Aesthetics: How well does the game utilize its visual style and how appealing is it
Sound: How well does the music and sound contribute to the game

The Streamer's Choice is the streamers favorite game in the jam, and the one they think will be fun to play on stream (2nd)

The ScoreSpace Choice is the favorite game among ScoreSpace staff. (3rd)

*In a situation where the same game is chosen for more than one category, said game will receive the highest placing they were awarded and another game will be chosen for the lesser category.
