Criteria

Notice: We will not be ranking your games for the fall and winter quarters, as we like to dedicate these times for purely constructive feedback, learning, and showing off your cool creations!

Theme

How well does your game integrate the theme? Or does your game give the theme a nice twist? If you decide to give a twist on the theme, please ensure that it's obvious that the game is still following the theme.

Gameplay

The combination of mechanics, features, entertainment, and player experience. Do you take typical mechanics and turn them on their head, create completely new mechanics, or just stick with the known and make it as polished as possible?

Graphics

The practicality, execution, and beauty of the graphics. Does your game's graphics look good, do they mesh well with your type of game, and are they consistent throughout?

Audio

Audio is an important part of the game. Effective sound design through music or sound effects can immensely improve a game on its own.

Completion

Is your game a complete experience from beginning to end (if your game intends to have an end) and is that experience bug free or likely to crash?

Q: How do I find a team/team member?
A: Through our  #recruitment-board channel on our discord! You could also invite your friend to join in but make sure they hit the join button above.

Q: I have little to no experience in making games, can I still join?
A: Yes everyone is welcome to join! But we strongly encourage you to look through our list of resources on game development in our #resources channel, or ask for help on #help.

Q: How and when will our submission be judge?
A: This particular jam will not be judged, for the Fall and Winter quarter, we'll be providing constructive feedback and allowing everyone to show off their hard work! You can check out our competitive game jam during the Spring quarter, or our 48 hour competitive game jam during the Summer quarter.

Q: How do I properly credit my game?
A: It's important that you credit anyone who worked on your game, or have made assets that were implemented. Crediting means providing the name of whoever else was a developer for your game in your credit scene or itch.io submissions page. This also includes citing sources for outside assets, such as assets used from the Unity assets store or royalty free assets from online. If you're not sure if it should be credited, it never hurts to do so regardless, but you can also always ask our officers on the #admin-help channel on our discord. An exception would be assets that specifically state they don't need to be cited, however we encourage you to cite them regardless for the sake of clarity and improved constructive feedback during the showcase.
