Games Now! Online Jam #7 is going low with the code!
***************************************************************************
Register to the GN Online Jam #7: Low Code Game Jam and the GN! Event Day #1: Low Code No Code here: https://forms.gle/8GLb84CcynAr7sYR9
***************************************************************************
Did you know that digital games can be created without programming? There is actually an abundance of tools and platforms to help you in your creative process with visual programming or drag-and-drop interfaces. You don't even have to start from the scratch: you can use templates and remix designs already available! On our Low Code Game Jam we challenge you to go as low as possible with typing code for your games. The lower the better!
We continue our series of online jams with multicultural collaboration. As previously, we will also have game jammers from various countries around the world. Join the jammer match-making to meet new people and to explore your own creative powers together! The jam will be jointly held in collaboration with the GN! network's universities and schools, including: Chungkang College of Cultural Industries – School of Games (South Korea), Södertörn University (Sweden), Ritsumeikan University (Japan), the Professional University of Technology in Tokyo (Japan), University of Vaasa (Finland), Aalto University (Finland), and many more. Check the full list here: https://gamesnow.aalto.fi/schools/
You can join the jam, regardless of whether you are enrolled in any game school - the jam is open for anyone and free of charge! We welcome everyone who loves games and is interested in cross-cultural jamming.
The jam will be kicked-off on the 14th November 2022 as part of the GN! Event Day program at: https://www.twitch.tv/gamesnowaaltofi. At the kick-off, we introduce our jam mentors as well as reveal the theme for the jam (something to inspire you in addition to the low-code requirement). Join the full GN! Event Day to learn more about the revolution of easy-to-access game making platforms. The Event is open for anyone interested!
[KOREAN] 게임즈나우! 온라인 게임잼 #7에 초대합니다! 이번 토픽은? 로코드-노코드 입니다^^
프로그래밍 없이도 게임 개발이 가능하다는 사실, 알고 계신가요? 최근 코딩 없이 쉽게 게임 개발이 가능한 개발툴들이 많이 등장하고 있습니다. 이들은 직관적인 인터페이스를 제공하며 심지어 간단한 드래그앤드롭 형식으로도 게임을 만들 수 있도록 해줍니다. 더 나아가 이젠 게임을 처음부터 끝까지 개발할 필요도 없습니다. 인터넷에는 여러 게임 템플릿, 샘플, 에셋 스토어들이 늘어나고 있으니까요. 이번 게임즈나우! 온라인 게임잼을 통해 빠르게 변화해가고 있는 게임 개발툴 환경을 체험해보고, 이 툴로 어떤 게임을 만들어볼 수 있는지 알아보세요. 심플하게 그러나 재미있게! 한번 도전해보시죠.
이번 게임잼에도 세계 여러 게임 학교들이 함께 손을 모았습니다. 지구 반대편에선 어떻게 게임을 인식하고 개발하는지 문화 교류 체험해볼 수 있는 절호의 기회! 우선 예년과 마찬가지로 핀란드 알토대학교, 대한민국 청강문화산업대학교 게임콘텐츠스쿨, 일본 릿츠메이칸대학교, 스웨덴 쉐드텐대학교가 다시 함께합니다. 추가로 일본 도쿄국제공과전문대학(IPUT), 핀란드 바사대학교 등을 비롯한 게임즈나우 협력대학들도 참여합니다. 게임즈나우 협력대학 풀리스트는 여기에서 확인하실 수 있습니다: https://gamesnow.aalto.fi/schools/

Games Now! Online Jam #7にようこそ！今回のトピックは？ロコード - ノーコード!
[JAPANESE] プログラミング不要でゲームが作れることを知っていますか？ 近年、コーディング不要で簡単にゲームが作れる開発ツールが多数登場しています。GUIによる直感的なインターフェースを通じて、ドラッグ＆ドロップでゲームが作れる環境が提供されています。そのうえ、ゲームを最初から最後まで開発する必要もありません。ネットには、これらの開発ツールで作られたゲームのテンプレート、サンプル、アセットなどが存在し、その数が続々と増えているからです。今回のゲームズナウ！オンラインゲームジャムでは、このように急速に変化しているゲーム開発環境を体験し、どのようなゲームを作ることができるか、調べるきっかけになるでしょう。シンプルだけど、楽しいゲーム！ 一度挑戦してみてください。
今回のゲームズナウ！オンラインゲームジャム＃7では、より多彩な教育機関が手を取り、国境をまたいだゲーム開発体験を実現するために集結しました。地球の反対側で、ゲームをどのように認識し、開発しているのか、異文化交流を体験する絶好の機会です。例年と同じくフィンランドのアールト大学、韓国の青江文化産業大学ゲームコンテンツスクール、立命館大学、スウェーデンのSödertörn大学が参加します。さらに東京国際工科専門職大学（IPUT）、フィンランドのVassa大学の教員が運営に加わるなど、ゲームズナウ！協力校が増加中です。ゲームズナウ！協力大学リストはこちらで確認できます。 https://gamesnow.aalto.fi/schools/
もっとも、ゲームズナウ！オンラインゲームジャム＃7に参加するうえで、これらの教育機関に在籍している必要はありません。参加料は無料で、ゲーム開発に関心と情熱を持つ人なら、誰でも参加することが可能です。
本イベントは2022年11月14日、ゲームズナウ！イベントDAYを通じて公式開催されます。ゲームズナウ！の詳細については、公式ホームページをご参照ください。https://gamesnow.aalto.fi/
####### Requirements and Theme ########################
####### 게임잼 규칙 및 테마 ゲームジャムルールとテーマ######
Just like the previous GNOJ's, also this jam has a special theme and design constraints. Low Code Game Jam is focusing on challenging the jammers to create games with low-code and no-code tools. Find creative ways to avoid programming a fully functional game. The lower amount of typed-in code you do on this jam, the better!
You can use templates or assets freely available (check their licenses), but make sure that all that you use are mentioned in your jam submission.
*The only limitation is that you cannot use any of your own projects from the past as a part of the project. Your own contribution needs to be new.*
For instance tools such as Bitsy, Twine, Construct 3, and GB Studio are great for this jam. See more low-code and no-code tools from here: https://tinyurl.com/aktinytools or for instance here: https://tinytools.directory/ (note that not all on these lists are low-code or no-code tools).
You can also explore such platforms as HypeHype, Dreams, and Roblox!
Or go classic and make a board game or any analog game!
The jam will have additional inspirational theme, which will be revealed at the end of the kick-off event. It will remain a secret until then...
[KOREAN] 이번 게임즈나우! 온라인 게임잼 #7에서는 가급적 로코드-노코드 개발툴을 통해 게임을 만들어보시기 바랍니다. 프로그래밍 없이 게임을 만드는 것이 과연 어떤 느낌일지, 어떤 장점이 있고 어떠한 한계가 있는지 등을 이번 기회를 통해 배워보세요. 코딩을 적게 하면 할 수록 더 좋습니다 ㅎ
온라인에서 구할 수 있는 게임툴 탬플릿, 에셋 등을 활용 하실 수도 있습니다. (단, 저작권에 접촉되지는 않는지 꼭 확인하세요.) 나아가 게임 제출시 템플릿, 에셋 등의 출처를 명확하게 보고하시기 바랍니다.
단, 기존에 본인이 작업해왔던 작품(예: 졸업준비작)을 가지고 본 행사에 참여하는 것은 금지됩니다. 꼭 이 행사에는 새로운 작품으로 참가하셔야 합니다.
로코드-노코드 게임 개발툴 예시: Bitsy, Twine, Construct 3, GB Studio 등. 그 외에도 여기를 참고하세요 https://tinyurl.com/aktinytools 또는: https://tinytools.directory/ (로코드-노코드 게임 개발툴이 아닌 것들도 더러 섞여 있으니 주의!) HypeHype, Dreams, 또는 Roblox 등도 활용 가능합니다. 물론, 보드게임이나 아날로그게임들도 코딩이 전혀 필요가 없다는 사실!
2022년 11월 14일, 한국시각 오후 11시 게임잼 "테마(theme)"가 공개됩니다. 테마는 간단한 단어나 문장이 될 예정이며, 이후 단어/문장이 연상되는 게임을 로코드-노코드로 개발하면 됩니다. 나아가 11월 15일, 한국 시각 오후 5시 브레인스토밍 & 팀빌딩 세션이 디스코드에서 진행됩니다. 꼭 참가하세요: https://discord.gg/YsgagHX
[JAPANESE] 今回のGames Now! Online Jam #7では、なるべくロコード - ノーコード開発ツールを使ってゲームを作ってみてください。プログラミングなしでゲームを作ることが果たしてどんな感じなのか、どんなメリットがあり、どんなリースがあるのかなどを、この機会を通じて学びましょう。コーディングが少ないほど良いと思います。
今回のGames Now! Online Jam #7では、できるだけコーディング不要でゲームが作れる開発環境（ローコード・ノーコードのゲーム開発環境）を用いてゲームを作ってみてください。プログラミングをすることなく、ゲームを開発することが、はたしてどのような体験なのか。どのようなメリットがあり、どのようなゲームがリリースできるのかなどを、この機会を通して学びましょう。今回のジャムではコーディングが少ないほど、称賛されます。
ゲームを開発する際、インターネット上で入手できるゲームのテンプレートやアセットなどを活用することもできます（ただし、著作権とライセンスを確認してください）。また、ゲームの提出時にテンプレートやアセットなどの引用元（URLなど）を明確に記載してください。
あらかじめ用意してきた作品（例：卒業制作で開発中のもの）をジャム中に開発するなどの行為は禁止されます。このイベントでは、ぜひ新しい作品を開発してみてください。
ローコード・ノーコードゲーム開発環境の例：Bitsy、Twine、Construct 3、GB Studioなど。その他にもこちらをご覧ください https://tinyurl.com/aktinytools または: https://tinytools.directory/ 利用可能です。（ロコード・ノーコードではない開発ツールも混在しています。）ボードゲームやアナログゲームを開発するのも良い選択だと思います。
2022年11月14日の午後11時（日本時間）に本ゲームジャムの「テーマ」が公開されます。テーマは簡単な単語や文章となる予定です。参加者はこのテーマから連想されるゲームをローコード・ノーコードで開発するようにしましょう。また、11月15日の午後5時（日本時間）にブレインストーミングとチームビルディングセッションがDiscord上で行われます。ぜひ参加してください：https://discord.gg/YsgagHX
今回のGames Now! Online Jam #7では、フィンランドのゲーム業界の専門家が参加し、ゲーム開発に対するフィードバックやヒントが参加者に対して提供されます。 参加者が開発したゲームについてもレビューが行われる予定です。さらに 提出されたゲームの一部は、Games Now! Online Jam#8イベント（2023年1月予定）で講評が行われる予定です。
