I just finished making a game on 13th June. I read that the game must be created within jams time period. But can I submit this game?  It's not my first game but it is the biggest game I've made in terms of learning game programming concepts. If not that's fine too.

If anyone is curious here is the game.

You need to create game during game jam time. That’s like asking teacher “can I give my exam to check” 2 weeks before anyone even see exam and write. Also I’m not sure if your game matches the theme of game jam.

Short answer: no, you can’t submit that game.

Cheers and good luck bud!


Ps. Your game looks great!

I'm glad you liked it. It's just that I've never been able to submit a game in game jam. It is an overwhelming process.  And I just wanted some people to play and give feedback on it. By the way it was written that it's no problem if theme matches or not and thanks for checking my game. But I guess I won't be submitting now.

As mmarusiak said, the point of a game jam is to make the game within the time limit. There's no point in participating in the game jam otherwise. Thanks for understanding!
