This is the first every Scratch Attack Game Jam. Scratch is a block coding software designed to introduce kids to coding. Although it's made for kids, you can do a lot with it, and some have even made 3d games even though it's a 2d engine.

To create a game, go to scratch.mit.edu, make an account if you don't have one, click "Create", and get coding! Once you've finished your game, click the orange "Share" button, then copy the link. It should look something like this: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/729251235/. Next, go to turbowarp.org and paste in the link to your game where it says to. Then, click "File" in the top right corner, then "Package Project", and then select the setting and file type you want. Then put the file in an itch.io project, and submit it! After the submissions have closed, you will have 5 days to vote on projects based on the criteria of Theme, Sound, Visuals, Gameplay, Buginess, and Originality. After the voting period ends, the winner will be declared, and the jam will be over.

Feel free to interpret the theme in any way you want, whether that means surviving the cold, or defeating the cold virus. There are lots of possibilities!

• Your game must be made for only this game jam, during the allowed time period.
• You can use basic scripts/systems that you have made in the past, but you can't just take an existing game and make new levels/retexture it. If you have questions about this, feel free to ask.
• Your game must follow the theme.
• Your game must be made in Scratch.
• No NSFW/offensive games.
• There is a team size limit of 5 people. This includes coding, art, music, sound, etc. You may use existing media, which does not count as a team member but it can't have been specifically made for your game.
• Your game can't just be a remix/copy of someone else's game. Suspicious games will be checked for this.
• Be kind, don't insult others or their skills.

Good luck, and have fun, and if you have questions, ask in the Community tab.
