Game Devision invites students to make a game in a month!
We announce the month's theme on our Discord on the First Friday of every month. Think you can guess the theme from this reveal video?
Who is this game jam for?
This is an invitation to students of game development.
What is Game Devision?
Looking for a crew to discuss games, work together, and share your creations with? You might be a good fit for Game Devision
We're an afterschool enrichment program for high-school aged developers. Tired of working alone on templates and tutorials? Looking to learn by doing? Want to talk to industry professionals? Interested in an invite-only Discord with structures in place to help you meet your goals?
This Month's Theme is:
Single Use
What if you could only jump once? One bullet? One tank of gas? What about the environmental impacts of disposable everything? Try to think of something that can only be used once, and how does that make for interesting context or gameplay?
Rules and Requirements
- Games must be conceptualized and built during this jam. You cannot submit previously finished games.
- Games must use the theme!
- You cannot edit your submission after the deadline!
- Teams are allowed, but prizes are only for the whole team, not the individual members
- All assets must be created by team members, or be appropriately licensed. Your game or itch.io page must show attribution. You can use assets you own (e.g. purchased assets from the Unity Asset Store). You may only use assets you have permission to use, and avoid infringing upon any copyright or trademark.
- No NSFW games. Games must not contain nudity, or hateful language or visuals.
Judging and Rating
All entries will be judged by the general itch.io public, and other participants of the jam, so that includes you!
Your game needs at least 10 ratings in any of the categories to be considered for winning. When you rate a game and leave feedback, they can see your game in exchange. The more games you rate, the more your game will get rated!
The rating categories are:
- Theme: Does the game fit into the theme?
- Gameplay: How do the mechanics feel? Is it fun to play?
- Art: How does this game look? Does the art style set this game apart?
- Audio: How are the sound FX and music? Do they fit with the game?
- Humor: Does the game make you laugh or snicker?
After the jam submission deadline, there is a 1 week rating period before winners are announced.
Legalities
Anything you make during Game Devision jams are your property. Game Devision claims no rights or ownership of your game.
Any game submitted to any Game Devision event may appear in an official Game Devision YouTube video or other published recording without your express permission.
