A room is an enclosed space, dimensions set by a floor, four walls, and a roof. 

Rooms are demarcated from the outside through passageways, doors, and windows. 

Imagine for a second. What if there was no sense of outside: no exit, no escape? What if there was only one room? 

A Dark Room is an experimental jam based on one rule:      

The game must be set entirely in one room. No transitions, no exits. Otherwise, how you interpret the 'room' is up to you. 

If you're looking for an optional stimulus, consider the theme: a door that doesn't work. 

Games from any genre are welcome, although horror games are generally preferred. 

I encourage you to think creatively about how this rule could change how you approach designing a game. 

This jam is non-ranked, but I encourage participants to play each other's contributions. 

I personally will play and review all of the games that are submitted to the jam. Promise!

 If you like, come join the FSV Discord server if you have any questions or would like to chat to other jammers. 

Otherwise, please use the jam's 'community' forum, or email me on farsidevirtualvr@gmail.com.
