Welcome to the Best of February jam! 

The goal of this jam is to create the Best of February Bundle, featuring only the top 5 games.

Theme and Duration

Theme: There is no required theme this time, but try to submit your most recent game. 

Timeline: The game jam runs until 23rd of February. Voting will be during the last week of February, and only those who submitted a game will be able to vote.

Rules and Guidelines

Eligibility: Anyone can participate! Whether you’re a seasoned developer or a first-timer, you’re welcome.

Submission Requirements: Submit a playable game along with any necessary requirements (such as a password to play).

Team Size: You can work solo or form a team.

Judging 

All participants (including you!) will evaluate each other’s games. We’ll tally the scores based on the judging criteria.

The top 5 games will make it to our exclusive bundle.

Criteria

1. Gameplay (Primary): How fun and engaging is your game?
2. Graphics and Art: Visual appeal matters.
3. Sound and Music: High-quality audio enhances the experience.
4. Innovation: Surprise us.
5. Polish and Presentation: Attention to detail counts.

Profit Sharing

Equal Split: All submissions in the Top 5 share the profits equally.

Host’s Share: As the host, I’ll take the same percentage as a submission (so 1/6 or 16.67% for everyone)

Transparency: We’re open to answer any questions.

Submission Terms

By submitting your game to our game jam, you agree to the following terms:

1. Game Display and Judging:
   • You grant us permission to showcase your game during the judging process.
   • All submitted games will be evaluated by other participants.
2. Bundle Inclusion:
   • If your game ranks among the top 5, it will be included in our exclusive bundle.
   • The bundle will feature only the best games from the jam.

3. Responsiveness:
   • If you become unresponsive during the process (e.g., repeatedly fail to reply or provide necessary information), your inclusion may pass to the next highest-ranked game (6th place, and so on).
