Welcome

Welcome to the official ZenoJam 5!

Do you ever want to participate in big game jams but don't know if you can handle the pressure? Are you confused how game jam works cause this is your first time? Fear not! This is a small 3-days long game jam hosted by a small community. Here, you can experience the fun of game jams. Even if you are new to game development and think you can't possibly finish a full game in such a short time, give it a shot anyway, it's worth it! In here, no one is too dumb.

The games are rated in these categories: Overall, Fun, Theme, Polishing.


Rules

There is basically only one important rule, no NSFW games. We want all games to be playable by everyone. So also make sure that your game doesn't have any offensive/hateful content. 

We don't care what game engine you use, Unity, Godot, Game Maker, Scratch, etc, as long as what you submit is a game.

You can submit your game in any forms. Windows, Linux, Mac, etc, but a web game is recommended as it is playable by everyone.

You may use premade assets as long as you credit the assets used in the description of your submission page.

If you want more specific rules, you can find it here. Please note that you don't actually have to read this. You are already good to go if you follow the rules above :)
