DiveJam is a water based game jam. It's a yearly(?) jam that focuses on water themed games.

You love the ocean and making games?  ...DiveJam!

Always wanted to get into water physics for a project? ...DiveJam!!

Just want to make a game during 4 days and beat yourself to finish it on time? ...DiveJam!!!

Hosted by DiVeR__ on his Twitch and Discord channels; The idea of the jam is to have developers, new or confirmed to take 4 full days to create a new game, concept or anything they want to focus on for a few days. Great things often come out of jams like this! Do not be shy, no matter what you end up doing, your skills will improve after that! You can check out the previous Jam's games here.

Themes:

• Depths
• "There's Always a Bigger Fish"
• One Breath

Feel free to use one of the three themes above, mix and match any of them, or even use none of them at all. It's up to you as long as you make a game.
