Hey developers,

I really like metroidvania games (in particular the Metroid ones), but I feel that it is hard to find good metroidvania games. So I give you the challenge to make a metroidvania game in a limit of time of 1 month (middle February to middle March)

Our cool Vania partner:
artsybarrels | Bored Pixels Jam

Rules:

1. Assets should all be made during the jam period (except general purpose code that you already made for other games). You can use assets with a free licence or the ones you bought, you aren't obligated to do all.

2. Incomplete games are accepted, I would like to see them evolve if it's a project that you'll continue. So don't stress to make a complete game! But your submission should be playable.

3. Teaming is accepted.

4. The game needs to be safe for work.

The jam doesn't have a theme in particular, as long as the game is a metroidvania-style game, and is playable, your submission will be accepted.

Games will  be rated on these criterias:

Scenario (story)

Gameplay

Graphics

Music and sounds

Engagement (if I want to continue to play the game) and general

Note: Bugs won't be counted, but if a bug affects too widely one of the criteria (Ex: Gameplay, a bug causes you to not be able to get a key to continue in the game) then you'll get less points on that criteria.

There isn't prizes. The jam is only there to awake your developer instinct to develop games. But you're proud of winning and you get a cool role on the Discord server.

Hope to see you participate and I am impatient to see your games!

You can join the Discord server for questions and more things!
