Hello! We have extended the game jam until tonight, Oct. 16th at 11:59pm PST to give folks enough time to submit their games due to itch being down. 

¡Gracias por preguntar! No habíamos incluido reglas para el uso de la IA, pero ya se han actualizado. Nuestra organización no está de acuerdo con el uso de la IA para el desarrollo de juegos en lo que respecta al arte final y los elementos visuales. Todo el arte y el desarrollo deben ser realizados por el equipo durante el periodo de la jam.

Hi there! If you haven’t joined our Discord server, we recommend joining and asking teams forming if they need VA talent - https://discord.gg/latinx

Hi Josep! Feel free to join our Discord and search for team mates in our UNIDOs Game Jam channel - https://discord.gg/latinx

Disqualified, as the game is the same as Don’t Bug Me - https://youtu.be/sZgFUFvADFM?si=lAKDAhVsRK5md_pG

Your game was disqualified, as it was previously made and submitted to a different jam - https://acornellier.itch.io/youre-the-boss

Thank you for sharing with us!

Thank you for sharing! We’ll send the information to our judges for evaluation.

No, that is not allowed. We did see that there were multiple submissions sent for the same games. We're also taking that into account. Are there any games specifically that you want to call out for us to flag?

Yes, as long as you submitted your game by the deadline and it's in the submission list, you can update it. However, we cannot guarantee that the judges will play the most updated build, as we can't tell exactly when your game will be judged.

It's not on the page because it doesn't have an image or page description. However, it is being judge and it's not disqualified.

Hi there, one of our judges disqualified the game, as it did not follow the theme of the jam.

An Android build is required but a Windows build is optional.

You can send us an Android build via email. Please let us know your game's title and team members in your email.

Yes, you may play any of the games once team's upload them. 

No, it's the opposite. The focus is on Android, mobile design first. Porting for Windows is optional and secondary.

What do you mean when you say size limit? The file size of the game?

The sounds design does not have to be Latin or Caribbean. There is a challenge about music but it’s optional. However, we expect each game submitted to celebrate Latin heritage, as this jam is meant to be part of Latinx Heritage Month. This is inclusive of music that fits the game you or your team is making. 

The theme of the jam is Tu Latinidad/Your Latinidad. The Challenges provided are only extra inspirations to use if you’d like. 

You will need to set a rating for players of you upload to the Google Play store. This step will be a requirement only for winning teams.

All team members must be 18 years or older to participate in the jam. 

You can port the game to Web or Windows but in order to be qualified for the prize, you need to port to Android.

Hola! Desafortunadamente, tenemos que limitar la edad de los participantes a 18 años o más, ya que este jam implica un gran premio acumulado. Legalmente, existen implicaciones complejas en torno a los concursos y los menores. Sin embargo, pensaremos en otras formas de permitir participantes menores de edad en el futuro.

Anyone is free to participate but please keep in mind that the intention of this jam is to celebrate Latinx heritage. 

Any developer is free to participate, as long as they stick to the theme

Feel free to post in the Con Latinidad channel on our Discord if you're still looking for a team! The link to our server is on the bottom of the jam page.

Preferably, we would like games that don't have violence or blood. We will include this in the rules for clarification. However, a horror theme is within guidelines, as long as it celebrates some kind of story or tradition from Latin heritage.

Thank you for sharing the build!

It looks like you uploaded a PDF file instead of an Android APK file. Can you upload the correct file so we can play the game?

The game's page is restricted and we cannot see the build. Can you open up access?

We don't see a build in your page. Could you try to re-upload it?

Hi Nazo! Can you please re-upload your game's pitch presentation? We can't access it.

Hi! You are the 1st place winner for Unidos Game Jam 2022! Please send us an email at contact@latinxingaming.com so we can get you your prize!
