TINY DISASTER JAM

Small Problem. Big Chaos.

Welcome to Tiny Disaster Jam — a 3-day game jam about making small, funny, chaotic games.

The idea is simple:
your game starts with one tiny problem…
and then everything goes completely wrong.

Maybe one button breaks.
Maybe one NPC says the wrong thing.
Maybe one bug becomes the final boss.
Maybe one small mistake destroys the whole world.

Make something weird, fast, funny, broken, cursed, chaotic, or stupid in the best way possible.

This jam is not about perfection.
It is about creativity, quick ideas, and fun disasters.

THEME

Small Problem, Big Chaos

Your game must be based on a tiny problem that turns into a huge disaster.

Examples:

• A small leak floods an entire city.
• One dinosaur loses an egg and starts a panic.
• A computer gets one error and destroys the office.
• A character presses the wrong button.
• A tiny bug becomes the main enemy.
• A normal day turns into complete madness.

The more creative and chaotic — the better.

JAM TIME

You have 3 days to create your game.

Day 1 — Idea

Day 2 — Make

Day 3 — Chaos

Add funny details, polish what you can, upload the game, and submit.

The game does not need to be big.
A small playable prototype is enough.
