The M. D. Walters game jam! Who is this mysterious figure with such a "prestigious" game jam named after him? Who knows! And it doesn't matter, what matters is

Glad you asked! This is a game jam where you have 3 days to make a game using a real programming language. That means no block coding, and no dragging and dropping. Your game must also follow a theme, which will be announced May 26, 2023 at 6 AM Central Daylight Time.

Quite the suckup, are we? Good. Basically, you have to make a game in 3 days following a theme. You can interpret the theme in any way you want, but it has to be incorporated somehow. At the end of the submission period, you and everyone else will have 1 week to vote on other people's games based on Theme, Sound, Visuals, Gameplay, Buggyness, and Originality, with the winner receiving a virtual pat on the back.

The theme will be announced May 26, 2023 at 6 AM Central Daylight Time.

• Your game must be made for only this game jam, during the allowed time period.
• You can use basic scripts/systems that you have made in the past, but you can't just take an existing game and make new levels/retexture it. 
• Your game must follow the theme.
• No NSFW/offensive games.
• There is a team size limit of 5 people. This includes coding, art, music, sound, etc. You may use existing media, which does not count as a team member but if it was made specifically for your game the creator counts as a team member.
• Be kind, and don't insult others or their skills unless you're mdwalters, in which case do whatever you want.

Good luck, and have fun, and if you have questions, ask in the Community tab. If you miss the submission deadline by a maximum of 4 hours, you can make a community post with a link to your game's itch.io and it may be added to the submissions manually.
