THE JAM IS NOW OVER!
Thank you to every participant!

Welcome to the 3rd edition of the Tropey Jam!

THE THEME WAS : THE HERO HAS A SWORD

Because the hero is always the one wielding a sword, let's change that up a bit shall we

The goal of this jam is to create a game centered around a particular trope or common gameplay mechanics that will be given to you at the start of the Jam!

Anything that is a common mechanic in videogames could be used as a theme. The more a mechanic is overused in videogames, the more it is disconnected to reality, the better. It's up to you to use them in a new or interesting manner in your creations.

Hope you'll join us to have fun in this little experiment, it's just a laid back jam for the fun of it!

Rules:

  • Use the trope in one form or another. Make it as core to your game as possible!
  • You can participate alone or in a team.
  • Any asset free of use or previously created by you can be used.
  • You can use previously written scripts and snippets as long as it's not something substantial (no already running demos)
  • The game must be developed during the 48 hour period of the Jam
  • The game should run on Windows

I will probably make a video to showcase the best entries to the world but you are free to tell me if you don't want your game to be used as promotion for the jam.
