📜 "RULES"

Slow Jam is all about giving you a reason to finish those stubborn projects, so the rules are very relaxed:

  • Submit any type of game by the end of July 2024, just get that game finished.
  • In fact, your project doesn't even need to be a game. Tools, screensavers, and printable board games are all welcome.
  • Use any tools you want, no restrictions and nothing is stopping you!
  • It doesn't matter how much work you've already put into the project, use this as the motivation for that final push.
  • Work alone or in teams, get help from whoever you need.
  • Use any assets that you're legally allowed to use, there are plenty of resources out there if you're struggling with graphics or music

🎮 ABOUT THE EVENT

Anyone who has been trying to make games for even a few months will have a project like this - a game you just can't seem to get over the finish line. Maybe you're stuck on that one stubborn programming issue? It could be you've got 75% of the idea but can't bring it all together. Have you practically finished a game and you're waiting for a reason to share it? Perhaps you go back to this project every 6 months, realize how much better you could make it, and start again from scratch? You may even be new to game dev, and you need a reason to finish that very first game! Whatever the reason, Slow Jam Winnipeg is here to help you. The jam will run throughout July 2024, tick something big off your to-do list and make a game!
