Our world is rapidly changing. The pace of technology could soon outpace the pace of human evolution. Their is no argument against the evolution of humanity. It's going to happen whether we want it to or not. The only thing we can decide is how are we going to react to it. Are we going to flood the new world with vehement spews of negativity? Or are we going to have a positive outlook at it being the continuation of human survival and sustainability? There are only two ways to react. However, I think the only one we should pick is the positive one...


The goal: As game developers, we have responsibilities to influence the future. I believe we should use it for positive ones, not negative. Create a game within the time allowed to leave a positive influence on the impending future using the theme and motives of the cyberpunk genre. While that is more solarpunk than cyberpunk, it still fits within the parent genre. Seeing as this is cyberpunk, literally almost anything goes content wise.

Rules:

  • Don't be mean.
  • Don't submit games not finished for this jam*.
  • Please consider making the games open source afterwards.
  • Please mark games with adult content as NSFW.

Again.

Why Are You Doing This? I made a game for the first cyberpunk jam. I knew it didn't hold up to the others, so I took it down after a while. While looking for artists to hire, I came across a team that had done a game for the first one and remembered that game. I thought, I could work on it, if I had a valid excuse. So what better excuse to work on it then to have a second cyberpunk jam where that was allowed?


You seem pretty cool for running this, can I help you out monetarily in any way? I'm glad you asked! You can donate via PayPal right here: https://paypal.me/RobertClemmonsJr
