This jam is now over. It ran from 2017-08-26 07:00:00 to 2017-11-01 19:00:00. View 27 entries

Announcement: I extended the jam by about 1 day because folks asked. However, this is a non-competition jam and there's nothing wrong with submitting incomplete games! Submitting in-development games is OK. We're all excited to see your work!

Marc Laidlaw has released a genderswapped Half Life 3 plot synopsis on his blog. (Here's a version with genderswapped-genderswapped names.)

Some say the dream is dead. WE SAY... THE OPPOSITE.

Half Life 3 is finally free, where it belongs: out in the world, with us. Half Life 3 belongs to the people. LET'S MAKE IT.


Here's the only rule for this jam:

Adapt Marc Laidlaw's plot synopsis in whole or in part in a style of your choosing.

No genre or artstyle restrictions. You can use the original characters or the genderswapped ones. Go wild.
