Submissions Extended until Midnight!!

Make a real game based on a fake cartridge!

Inspired by the amazing "A Game By Its Cover" game jam, but with community submitted cartridges! And now, open to the internet for the first time! 

What we're doing:

1. Make fake video game cartridges
2. Choose someone else's fake cartridge
3. Make it into a real game! In 3-weeks!

Before 6th APRIL - MAKE FAKE CARTS

Cartridge templates here

Upload your custom cartridge here 

Upload as much as you like, as often as you like. This is your time to shine. The only rule is to keep it radically appropriate. Have fun. Get funky. 

• You don't have to submit a cartridge to jam.
• You don't have to jam if you submit a cartridge

6th APRIL - PICK A CART, MAKE GAME

Choose a cartridge from all the submissions (not your own!). Make a game!

27th APRIL - UPLOAD YOUR GAME

Game Submission Rules:

• Keep it appropriate
• Use a cartridge you didn't submit, include it in your submission
• Include instructions for installation and controls
• Extra credit if it works on our arcade cab (really, we'll put it on our touring arcade cabinet)!

Society of Play usually has IRL kickoff and wrap-up events in Dallas Texas 🤠.

But not this time (for obvious reasons).
