Welcome to the Buildbox & Rogue Game Jam!

FAQs:

What is a Game Jam?

A Game Jam is essentially a hackathon for video games. It is a gathering of people for the purpose of planning, designing, and creating one or more games within a short span of time.

How Do I Submit My Game?

You submit your game simply by filling out THIS FORM. Make sure you are sending in your BBDOC before the end of the Game Jam!

Who can participate?

Anyone can participate in a Game Jam. The people who usually participate are video game developers, video game players, and anyone who wants to make a game.

What is the Game Jam Theme?

Who Picks the Winner?

The Rogue team and Buildbox team will be collaborating. We will collect all of your BBDOCS and pick out the game that we think is best overall. We will definitely factor in how well you use the theme in our decision.

Who is allowed to join? Teams or Individuals?

We welcome both! Both teams and individuals are allowed to enter. Keep in mind that a team places in the top 3, they must split up or share a prize.

Can you use both Buildbox 2, Buildbox 3 or Buildbox Free? 

Yes! You can absolutely use any of them. We do ask that you only submit one BBDOC. 

What's the game type?

You're free to decide the type you wish to create. As long as it's not a direct copycat of another game and follows the rules and incorporates the theme, we're good. We do not want to restrict your creativity so go for anything you want.

Will artwork and sounds be provided?

Nope. You are free to use whichever art or music you want as long as you have the permission to do it (you've purchased it or it's licensed to you, you own it, you drew it, etc). Again, we do not want to restrict anyone's creativity and have a bunch of games which look the same.

Can we upload a game already created if it matches the theme?

No. That would be the same as cheating. You can only start working on your game once the jam has started.
