Mad Scientist

Are you up to the challenge?

Sleepless Inc., purveyor of high quality soft and gentle wares, has established this illustrious Jam of Gaming to test your game development skills under pressure.  

We have created an open source game engine/library for simple, basic, browser based games.  Your challenge, will be to learn how to use this engine, and build a game in the space of 50 hours.  The game will have only these requirements:

  1. The Squids game engine must be used at the core of your game.
  2. A start/title page or view.
  3. There must be a clear goal.
  4. A way to win, and a way to lose.
  5. A game-over screen or view when you lose.
  6. A special reward or victory screen or view when you win.

The Sleepless Inc. Discord server will be available to all participants for the duration of the event and you are highly encouraged to join so that you can all share the pain and/or fun.  There will also be useful information and answers to questions in the Discord channel.  The engine's creators may be available on this server from time to time during the event, so take advantage of that if you can.  Here's the link:   https://discord.gg/Rgg4cX3

Entries will be voted on by the participants, contributors, and the creators of Squids.

The winner will receive a $30 Steam gift card or cash through PayPal. (USA participants can request gift cards for other merchants)

Good luck!
