Good luck and have fun !

• Graphics (sprites, models, vfx, ambiance)
• Audio (music, sound effects)
• Originality (have you seen that before)
• Theme (adherence to theme)

So don't forget to work on every aspect of your game

~END OF THE EDIT~

To celebrate the last month of an infamous year, join us in a gamedev adventure of a lifetime ( maybe not ). You'll have to create a video-game from scratch in only 48 hours in solo, or in a team of 3 people or less.

Your game need to be about the theme "??????????" that will be announced at the start of the jam.

The goal of this event is to innovate new ideas, think different and create something original. Creating a game in so little time is really hard and definitively a great challenge.

EVERYTHING should be done in the jam ( arts, music, sound effect, scripts, 3d models) , or else it will be REMOVED from the submissions .

 It will help you learn to do time management, prototyping, and make you get better real quick at what you want to do in the gamedev industry and even make this game a longer project in the future.

This jam is for anyone , from beginner to pro, who think they can take the challenge ! You'll be rated on number of things, from graphics to originality, make your game is polished as it can be. Try to make a complete art piece with all your love.

I'm Antoine JEAN a indie gamedev ,  and I'm really into making weird and original games, I try new concepts and even create new genres. I really good at level design and story. I'll rate your games with a personal criteria and give you real in depth feedback with all my knowledge. Don't be shy, I'll answer all your question in the discord ( https://discord.gg/rR3fnsA ) and advice you from code to art.

The previous themes were ( for information ), "Level design out of context" & "Play without sight".

Q&A. 

What kind of things can I make my game in ?

Pretty much everything, Unity, OpenGl, html5, Flash, GameMaker studio, anything you can make a videogame out of.

Anything Prohibited ? 

No extreme gore, or any apologia of racism, homophobia or any hate messages. Let's be kind and nice.

Can I go to forums or watch tutorials ? 

Yes, you can ask anyone for help or watch videos, but don't copy paste in to your game, at least copy it by hand. Don't forget, everything should be done is the jam.

Last words ?

You'll have 1h30 of extra to build, bug test and publish your game. Use this time carefully, be sure your game is "finished" and the build it and play test it ! Last time more than 80 people joined and 15 games were made, let's break that !
