Welcome to the FAtiMA’s game jam. This game jam is about creating games using the FAtiMA Toolkit.

Thank you all for participating!

The Jam is now over and the winner will be announce on 31st of January

What is FAtiMA Toolkit?

 FAtiMA Toolkit is the emotion engine for your AI characters.

FAtiMA Toolkit is a free collection of tools/assets designed for the creation of characters with social and emotional intelligence. Using it will allow you to create interesting, believable and engaging characters that appraise events and make decisions on their own.

Fatima Toolkit is a C# library that can be easily integrated into already existing projects. FAtiMA Toolkit can be, and is, used in commercial video games, serious games, educational robots, virtual reality experiences, among others. 

FAtiMA Toolkit allows you to: 

  • Create AI characters that feel like humans
  • Wield a Highly Flexible dialogue system
  • Use Authoring Tools for rapid prototyping

The purpose of this software component is to facilitate the use of  interactive storytelling, with compelling emotional characters, for the development of applied games. More precisely, it is meant to aid developers in the creation of game scenarios where both players and autonomous characters are playing an active role in a narrative that unfolds according to their actions.

We want to see what games you can make using this tool.

Note: Unfinished works* are allowed/encouraged, and completing the work isn't a requirement either - demos are perfectly fine.


Where can I find this Toolkit?

FAtiMA Toolkit is available  on Github and on the Game Component website

The version used for this Game JAM is v2.5.2 also known as the FAtiMA-Toolkit Game Jam Edition.

You can find it in the link above or in the releases sections of its Github page. However we encourage you to check out ourGet Started webpage to learn what files you will want to use on your videogame


Where can I learn how to use it?
