This is an event in which you'll have 2 days to create games using GDevelop, the free and open-source game engine. Once the submission period is over, your game will get rated by other participants, and you will also get to rate other games. 

The GDevelop Weekend Jam #1 will be a fun, diverse, and inclusive event in which you'll get to put your skills to the test. There will be participants from all over the world, and you will have the opportunity to chat with other developers, discuss each other's games and of course, create a game from start to finish! 

You need to register for the event right here on itch.io in order to participate. Please also join our Discord server for all information and notifications regarding the jam, and to meet the other participants. 

Whether you finish your game or not, you'll have an amazing experience, learn tons and meet cool people from around the world!

Warioware-like Minigames

One submission per team, which is a game that you can play on both liluo.io and itch.io, that contains multiple fun mini games!

Here are the rules for participating in this event:

• You must use the GDevelop game engine to make your game. The engine is free and open-source. You can find it on our official website.
• The games must not include offensive, discriminatory, or NSFW content of any kind. This is an event for anyone and everyone! So don’t be rude. 
• Games must be submitted through itch.io for rating as well as Liluo.io (see video below for instructions).
• Games must be published to be played on browsers (bonus thumbs up for mobile compatibility!), without requiring extra hardware.
• Any text must be in English.
• You may use pre-made, publicly available, and purchased assets, as well as GDevelop's built-in asset library, or other assets you have the legal rights to use. Just remember to credit properly. 
  
• You may team up! And we encourage it. You can find teammates on our Discord server. The maximum number of team members allowed is 4. 
• You may not submit any work or updates after the submission period is over. 

Creating games with other people is a fantastic experience and is also very helpful to reach the end of the jam with a finished game, so do think about teaming up if you haven't. 

If a game is not published on itch.io and Liluo.io (see video below for instructions), participation in the jam will be considered invalid.

All games will be rated in the following categories:

• Fun & Game Design: Do you want to continue playing? How enjoyable is the game? Is the interface usable?
• Audio: How nice does the game sound? Does it implement cool music and sound effects?
• Graphics: How nice does the game look? Is the art nice to look at?
• Originality & Innovation: How often did you say "Wow! That's unexpected and clever" when playing?
• Theme: How relevant is the game to the jam's theme?

Don’t worry about this too much, though. The most important thing is that you participate, have fun, and stick to the jam’s theme! Once the submission period is closed, you will have one week to rate other people’s games.

The 3 games with the highest overall scores will be declared Community Winners.
They will get :

• Their games featured for a week on Liluo.io, GDevelop's game storefront.
• They will also get special roles on the GDevelop Discord server.
• And a  3-month GDevelop Indie subscription!

FAQ
- Does a Weekend jam mean there is a jam every week? 
Not every weekend  It's just that it's one week-end long (compared to the first game jam, which is a "big" game jam - there will be another one this year!)

- We should make the game playable on itch.io & liluo.io?
Yes, you need to upload your game to itch.io for scoring to take place, and we also ask everyone to publish on Liluo (as this is the recommended place for GDevelop games and get feedbacks from the community in the future). Publish on itch.io and liluo.io is a requirement to have valid participation in this jam.

- For how long the winners will carry the winner role in Discord?
A few weeks with a "latest jam winner" and then you get for life a role "Past jam(s) winner"
