Tis The Season To Game Jam!  Winter is coming! This means it's time to cosy up by the fireplace and get your game on! Join us for Serious Point Games' second game jam and create a visual novel game, filled with cool and icy characters. You'll have 3 days to build a snowman - we mean a game - set within the winter season.

Criteria

• Winter Wonderland - The setting of the game must take place during the winter time and be the main visual/aesthetic.
• Visual Novel - The main gameplay must be in a visual novel format. There is room for mini-games/puzzles within but should be focused on characters and the storytelling.
• Characters - 2 minimum 
• Art Style - Any art style is welcomed - pixel, 3D, etc.
• Team Size - maximum 6, 1 Project Manager assigned per team

Additional Notes

• Hosted by Serious Point Games LTD - an independent UK game development studio.
• The Main Game Jam will take place in the Serious Point Game Jam Discord.
• The Serious Point Games Team will be participating in the Game Jam but team submissions won't be submitted/judged to avoid bias.
• Solo developers are encouraged to apply, and we will assist in team formation to ensure everyone who wants to participate can have a team. If you are a solo developer and want to work in a team, feel free to apply here - we will create groups if possible.

The games will be graded in the following in order:

1. Writing
