SUMMARY


  • Work either individually or as a team
  • Any game engine or programming language can be used
  • Must be made within the three day time frame
  • The theme and hardmode challenge will be announced when the jam starts
  • Participate in theme & challenge voting!

HARDMODE CHALLENGE?


The "hardmode challenge" is an optional restriction or goal that you can do to challenge yourself in the jam! 

Some possible ideas may include:

  • Only using paint for graphics and artwork
  • Submitting the game 24 hours early
  • Having only one or two button controls in your game

There is no extra reward for doing the hardmode challenge, for it is entirely done to test yourself. However, if you did try it, please mention it in your games description so others can know! 


JUDGING


Game judging will be open to the public, and proceeds over the course of five days.

The criteria which you will be judged upon includes:

  • Gameplay Is the game fun? Are the mechanics well-designed?
  • Art Does the game look aesthetically pleasing?
  • Audio Are the music and sound effects effective at complimenting the gameplay?
  • Innovation How original is the game concept and its execution?
