This fast-paced jam will challenge your skills and creativity throughout Saturday. The focus is on learning, having fun, making friends, and some competition. Saturday Smash Jam picks the actual themes that inspire game mechanics. Claim your spot in the jam, and stay tuned for the theme voting.


UTC Coverage:

  • Earliest Saturday Start: Friday, 10:00 AM UTC (UTC+14).
  • Latest Saturday End: Sunday, 12:00 PM UTC (UTC-12).

  1. The jam runs every Saturday.
  2. A theme is announced to spark ideas.
  3. Submit your game and explore others' creations!

  • Create games during the jam.
  • Pre-made assets are fine; core gameplay must be new.
  • Stick to the theme but get creative!
  • Keep it respectful and suitable for all.

At the end of the jam, the voting round starts. The right to vote is reserved for participants who submitted and their contributors. The voting system then calculates the overall score based on these four criteria:

  • Gameplay
  • Theme Adherence
  • Creativity and Innovation
  • Presentation

The most important criterion is Gameplay because we want our games to be fun. However, the overall rating is calculated by all criteria equally.

Make friends, learn, experiment, and have fun. 

Top-rated games go to the Hall of Fame and are announced on our Discord.

  • Join the [Discord server] to connect with other jammers, form teams, and share your progress.
  • Open a community discussion by asking a question or sharing an idea.
