Hello all! 

Per your feedback, we've made a few updates to our Game Jam listing here on itch.io. Please take a moment to review the updates, and let us know if you have any questions! We're only about a week away from the Jam - so stay tuned for further updates!

Updates:

  • Clarified some details in the "Rules & Regulations" section, specifically parameters for tools/game engines/pre-existing assets, etc that are relevant to the challenge
  • Added more details about how we'll be announcing the "secret theme" and where/when/how it will be revealed
  • Altered the submission process to require submission to itch.io, unless your files are too big - in which case we're open to having it sent via an alternate route (Google Drive, etc)
  • Now requiring all teams to share a link to their submission on Twitter and tag the post with "@KalorianMarket" and #KalorianJam - ensuring that they get proper credit/attribution for their project and so we can help them get more eyeballs on their work (we're excited for people to see your games!)
  • Now requiring all team members to register separately so we can ensure we're able to notify every winner and properly distribute prizing (not that we don't trust the team leaders, but hoping this simplifies the process for everyone)

It was an addition that we made in response to some who were concerned about the validity of the contest. We added it as a way to let teams know that we aren鈥檛 going to do anything shady once they submit their games. If you are concerned about being disqualified for not submitting a Twitter post, don鈥檛 worry. 馃榾 We will be sending out an email this week to everyone who has registered - feel free to respond to that email and we would be happy to discuss an alternate means of submission.


Using Twitter was also just a way of having you guys get your work out there, and it makes it easier for us to help promote your projects with you. But totally understand where you鈥檙e coming from and we鈥檙e happy to work with you!
