Hi everyone,

We're pleased to announce that GBA Jam 2022 is now underway!

This thread will be used to post updates and announcements.

Remember the jam is 3 months long to account for people's differing schedules & availability. So don't stress, pick a couple of free weekends and see how far you get. (But don't leave it to the last minute!)

I'm not sure I'll find time to enter this year myself, but I'll certainly be judging and I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with :)

Good luck and (most importantly) have fun!

Hello! We have made an update to the Q&A to clarify the rules around asset reuse.

It should hopefully now be more clear that:

  • you are allowed to use assets you previously made.
  • if you're remaking an existing game, you can use its assets as long as you have permission from the creator.

Keep in mind that games using new & original assets are likely to score higher in the "Originality" category, so we would still encourage you to use new assets! But if your heart is telling you to make a faithful port or revive a dead project from another platform, it is now possible to do so.

Thanks for the clarification
