So what is this jam about??

This jam is essentially about visual novels and the number 10. It's simple. If you know what makes up a visual novel assets-wise, then it should be easy. You are only allowed to use:

  • 10 or less BGM tracks.
  • 10 or less SFX tracks.
  • 10 or less sprites for each character, and only under 10 characters overall.
  • 10 or less event CG's.
  • 10 or less of essentially any core asset in a VN.

Interesting, right? The word count of the VN is unlimited though, so it can be as short or as long as you want. You have the entire month of April to work on it, so good luck~! (game jam may be extended depending on events)

p.s. if you want to incorporate the number 10 in the story as well, that's pretty neat and you should go for it!

Other rules to follow:

  • Teams or single devs allowed.
  • Be nice to everyone, no bigotry allowed :<
  • Any engines are allowed to be used.
  • When submitting, make sure you have a list of all the assets used to make sure it's under 10 of each category.
  • No 18+ works in this jam (gore and sexual implications allowed, just no explicit nudity or sex).
  • MUST BE A VISUAL NOVEL!!
  • Must be downloadable for at least Windows OS.
  • Stock and creative commons assets are allowed.
  • Old works technically can be submitted, but I don't recommend obviously.
  • No AI generated writing allowed.
  • Demos are allowed but fully finished games are preffered.\
  • Game must be free to download and play for everyone.

PLEASE READ BELOW:

At the end of the jam, I plan to make a collection of all the games submitted for myself to remember and honor this game jam. If you aren't okay with your game being a part of this collection, then please do not submit to the game jam. The collection is entirely personal for myself, and isn't distributing the games submitted to anyone else in other ways. Thank you!
