Welcome to the Solarus Game Jam! Your goal: build a game using the Solarus 2 engine. Solarus 2 is best known as an engine for developing 2D Zelda-inspired games, with its built-in features and community resources largely made for top-down action RPGs. However, you are not restricted to any one genre for this jam- so long as you can build it in this engine!
Information, downloads, and other resources about the engine can be found here: https://www.solarus-games.org/
There are a few rules for this jam:
1. Time: Please limit yourself to working on your game within the timeframe of the jam. Across the week of the jam, we recommend working no more than 48 hours on development- don't overwork yourself!
2. Assets: No AI assets are permitted. There are plenty of free assets available, and plenty of eager developers that would be happy to team up. You may reuse your previously written code, art, music, etc.
3. Resubmissions: Please do not submit games to this jam which have already been submitted to other jams or which are reskins of previously submitted games. If you have an existing Solarus game you'd like to show to people, you can show us over at the Solarus Discord: https://discord.gg/KQD8Mebpr
The jam's optional theme will be revealed at the start of the jam.
