About

This game jam is hosted by the ACORP (Formally known as the ACLU or the ACULt)! if you would like to join in on other events please join the Discord Server.

The primary focus of these game jams is learning, whether you are new to game development, or experienced with game jams, you are encouraged to focus on testing yourself and try something new. This game jam will last for two weeks and will end on Saturday, November 23rd, 2024. Judging will commence on stream on Sunday, November 24, 2024 at Noon Pacific Standard Time.

UPDATE: We are now extending the game jam to end on Saturday, December 7th! So if you started late, or haven't even started at all, you've got no excuse to participate and potentially reap your rewards!

                                                                                                                                                                                                  

Prizes

Unlike the previous game jams, this one finally has a prize! Each member on the winning team will receive an Atriarchy lanyard and Atriarchy pin. Only first place will receive any reward for this competition. Please make sure to note each member properly in your games' credits for prize distribution!


                                                                                                                                                                                                  

Theme

With the new launch of the ACORP, we wanted to welcome the new surge of developers into the world of our corporate overlords. Thus, the theme will be:

BUSINESS CASUAL
