I am hosting a game jam for the RPG game development tool: RPG In A Box. You can find this jam here: https://itch.io/jam/rpg-in-a-box-game-jam-2022


With RPG in a Box, no coding is required to create your game. So in a nutshell.. what is RPGIAB?


"RPG in a Box lets you easily create 3D grid-based, voxel-style RPGs and adventure games! As its name suggests, it will contain every tool necessary for turning your ideas into games, all packaged together "in a box". The software is designed with a beginner-friendly approach as to not require any programming or modelling knowledge while still providing a wide range of customization and openness. Created from the powerful Godot 3.1 Engine and Development software."

You can obtain this powerful and feature filled game engine created using Godot 3.1 over here: https://zeromatrix.itch.io/rpginabox


The jam will begin taking submissions from February 7th until February 28th. Voting will take place March 7th thru the 8th.

Basic requirements will need to be met. The game you create must contain at least 2 scenes(10x10 grid size each), 1 playable character and 5 NPCs. No specific theme is required. Since RPGIAB is very versatile and intuitive, your game is not restricted to just being an RPG. It can also be a point and click adventure or a FPS if you would like.


Why should you join?

I haven't states this in the rules yet, but the winner of the jam will receive a $50 gift card. I will update the jam rules this week with that prize.

Also, you would be supporting and learning all about this highly active and in development, powerful game engine.

Join the jam and post on the community for any questions or even resources and tutorials.

Thanks for watching!

I thought I would start off with some tutorials for RPG in a Box to show you just how easy it is to make a pretty powerful game very quickly:
