Details

This is a chill and flexible jam whete you can make a game in any style, any genre, using any engine — as long as it fits the theme. You will have an entire week to create your game.

The jam is called Unconventional Jam because the goal is to break the mold and experiment with new, unexpected ideas in game development.

Theme

The theme is optional but encouraged. Not following it will not affect your ratings, although it is recommended to follow it for inspiration.

The theme for this Jam is "Unlikely Hero"

The protagonist is not what you'd expect, a toaster, a lost Wi-Fi signal… go wild! The sky's the limit.
