Excited to Launch the jam!

Thanks again to everyone who submitted :D

Will be reviewing these on Twitch Friday 27th Feb at 12pm UK time.

Come join the review here: https://www.twitch.tv/luigianimation

all the characters look great and excited to go through the music!

Hiya guys!
Loving all the submissions that im seeing at the moment :D

Will review these on Fridays stream (Midday -12PM UK time) over on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/luigianimation

So if you can make it please do come along!

Hiya guys :D

The jam is now live and ready to take in submissions.

To clarify:

•  You can submit more than one character token or song
• Doesn't have to be pixel art or chiptune, ALL STYLES WELCOME!
• All music MUST loop and be MAXIMUM 4 - 5 mins long can be as short as a 1 min loop

As for the oneshot for the Twitch Stream, here's the premise to also clarify it:

"Our adventurers start out in a Tavern.. THE artists Tavern. Where Tavernkeeper Luigi's prized Warhammer model gets stolen by some Goblins. The adventurers are tasked by the Tavernkeeper to find this prized possession or else the village is dooommeddd"

The vibe is going to be super goofy, causal and as interactive with the Twitch audience as we can make it, so if you're down to have a fun chaotic night with us, pls do join the live stream!

Hiya guys,
Thanks so much for taking part in the jam. Will look through these and shall go over them on Wednesday on Stream!
Then every couple of weeks we will spin a wheel to rotate these into the discord and twitch (credit will be put in the emote name) 
Any questions make sure to pop them in the discord channel :)

Ahhhhh the link must have expired then! Thanks for letting me know mate, assume you're in the server now? :) 

If you didn't get to submit on time for whatever reason, please ping me on the Artists Tavern discord in the #Winter jam chat channel!

Steps to upload late submissions:

1. upload your game to itchio separately

2. Send me the link to it

3. I will then generate you a link to enter the jam, then you just confirm it 

The jam has now ended, pls take time to play and vote on everyone's games.
Thank you so much to everyone who took part! :D

Will add it ontop of the video mate my bad! :) 

Hiya everyone,

Just a heads up im updating the deadline till Wednesday 7pm UK time to allow people to upload and finish up :) 

Good luck :D

Hiya mate, small reminder that  we have a section on the discord to help you find a team if you don't get replies here on time!

We start another event next Tuesday and also need to judge, so we can extend it by a day but just a tight shcdule this week sorry!

I was without wifi for a week and forgot to upload it to itchio sorry mate!

Hiya everyoneeee,

Just in case you didnt see the discord nessage, but everyone has until TUESDAY 23rd 7PM UK to upload your games!

Hiya mate! I usually give like an extra day for late submissions as we have internaitonal time zones so lmk if you are elsehwere in the world!

Also would post on the discord if you have any issues with code etc!

Please keep to the Discord to find teams mate! Makes it easier to manage and help you out :)

Great way to put it tysm! :D

It should be easy to make it web playable just give us quesitons if you cant and someone can help you out!

But yes it is preffered to have a web playable game on itch.io as it makes it easier to judge, as downloading takes a while and we will have to check for virsuses etc

We have plenty of of voice actors in the server so please use them instead of AI!

Broswer Builds are preffered as it keeps the games acccesible to everyone! and makes juding much faster if we can play on the browser directly!

Hmmm, had not thought about this, we would prefer you submit 1 game per jam as its easier to manage, as we sometimes get flooded by people submitting to every jam they can and we flag it as spam. So to make sure you don't get flagged by our mods,I would suggest to keep it to one jam please!

Hiya guys make sure to use the Discord and Google forms to sign up for teams as it makes it easier to manage on ther! :)

yes so its just the name of the Jam! Theme and everything else will be posted today at 7:00pm UK time!
Make sure to be on the Discord in case any updates happen :)

Any game engines as long as it doesn't require extra software or hardware to download!
Just make sure you can upload it as a web playable game on itchio!

Any engines as long as you can upload it to Itchio as a web playable game too! 

Ahhhh true forgot to put that in the rules but for these jams they are for everyone so no NSFW sorry!
We have community guidelines in the server to follow, so looking to keep in line for those for events :)

Hope thats alright!

Loved the concept! At first was a bit confused on the mechanic but once I had to die the first time it click, great use of the theme guys! Super easy to understand and enjoyable too , Very solid submission!

You have an extra day to submit inc ase you are in a different timezone!
