Welcome the Alternate Genre Jam!

The Alternate Genre Jam is the game jam where you choose the exact wrong genre for what the Jam's theme is.

For example, if the theme were guns (which it isn't), instead of making an action game, you would instead create a romantic; interactive novel... where you shoot people.

Join our Discord to talk to others participating in the jam!


THE THEME IS: WAR

Rules

  • Teaming is allowed: come along to our Discord to find a partner in mayhem!
  • You Must follow the theme provided. The theme will be announced 5 minutes before the jam begins.
