You get 3 “coolness” points for doing the following: writing a devlog, sharing our jam on social media and you can get a point for making a video about other submissions.

As a tie breaker I will use the itchio “karma” system, and as a secondary tie breaker - I will roll a dice.

To qualify: send me a DM with links to your devlog, one social media post and one video. (You don’t get extra for doing multiple, sorry)

Make a devlog! Rate entries! Be cool and you can win a prize from our prize pool!!!

1(one) “coolness” prize per team. Must be 13 or older to claim a prize.

32Bit Summer Games 2024 community · Posted in Just to get sure: premade Assets are allowed?

AsFunAsFun.123 days ago

Good question.

You may use any asset pack as long as you have the correct permission to do so. Does not matter if it is free or paid. Some asset packs do not explicitly say they are AI gen. So please do your best. I won’t disqualify you as long as you try your best to avoid AI content. Please list the asset packs you use in the credits or in the description of your game.

Thanks for asking!

32Bit Spring Cleaning - 2024 community · Created a new topic New "COOLNESS" Prize Tier

AsFunAsFun.273 days ago (1 edit)

There is a new PRIZE TIER! Coolness is a secret attribute that is attached to every submission in itchio jams. You can see it if you inspect the JSON. So, I am going to use that as part of the criteria for this new prize tier. Coolness is calculated by how many submissions you have rated and commented on! You get points up to 3 extra “coolness” points for doing the following: writing a devlog, sharing our jam on social media and you can get points for making a video about other submissions.

FAQ

How are games ranked?

Games are ranked by how much the improved. Participants must provide an old version of their project. Voters will compare the new and old versions and give a 1 to 5 rating on how much your game improved. Voters may also vote on secondary criteria: Graphics, Audio, 90s, Fun. These secondary criteria aren't used for the overall ranking.

Who can vote on submissions?

Their are a two types of voters in this jam, Participants and Judges. Judges are not participants, but can vote just the same. Judges are usually streamers or volunteers. (Ask DevEarley if you wish to be a Judge). A participant is someone who submitted a game or worked on a submission.

What is the "Old Version"?

The old version is the version of your submission as of Feb 6th, the day the jam starts. It can be older than that.

How do I show my submission's improvements?

You have a number of options. When you submit your game, you will be asked a few questions about the old version. You can provide a link to a video or you can describe how to play the old version. You will be asked:
Is there an old version of this game? (made before or on Feb 6th, 2024)
Is the old version playable? Can you download it from the submission page?
If not, how should people experience the old version of your game?
Link to a video of your old game. (OPTIONAL)

Where can I host the old version of the submission?

Participants may upload an old version of their game to same itchio page as their submission. They should mark the folders as "OLD VERSION" and "NEW VERSION" to be clear to voters. Participants can upload two zips or put both versions in the same zip.

What if I am starting from scratch? I do not have an old version.

This is ok. Simply mention that somewhere on your submission page. Voters will be judging your submission based on it's improvement, from nothing.

Can I submit a video of the old version?

Yes, as long as voters can get a good sense of the old version so they can make an informed decision.

Can I submit screenshots of the old version?

If you must. A playable version or a video would be preferred.

What will I be asked when I submit?

Is there an old version of this game? (made before or on Feb 6th, 2024)
Is the old version playable? Can you download it from the submission page?
If not, how should people experience the old version of your game?
Link to a video of your old game. (OPTIONAL)
Did you, or anyone on your team, use AI to generate any aspect of this game?
Did you work on this solo or as a team? What was your team size?
(OPTIONAL) Who worked on this game besides you?
(OPTIONAL) What tools did you (and your team) use to build your submission?
(OPTIONAL) Any suggestions for the organizers of this jam?

32Bit Spring Cleaning - 2024 community · Posted in can I make I game with the style of 90 windows ?

AsFunAsFun.273 days ago

Games in this jam are ranked on how 90’s they feel. Think low res, limited colors & pixel-y graphics. Hypnospace Outlaw and Windows NT I think fit that aesthetic.

32Bit Spring Cleaning - 2024 community · Created a new topic UPDATE TO THE PRIZE POOL

AsFunAsFun.290 days ago

UPDATE: This is NOT winner takes all. 1st place gets to pick a title from the 1st place tier. 2nd picks from 2nd place tier. 3rd from 3rd. 1st will pick a prize from 1st place tier of prizes. 2nd will pick from 2nd tier, 3rd from 3rd. Prizes that are picked will be replaced with new titles.

Doing this because prize pool isn’t bottomless and we have a bunch of game jams coming up. Sorry about this change, it is a little disappointing. I hope you understand. I will update the Jam page as well.

I like the concept! Nice work. Graphics are really nice, who did the art?

Feedback: Without instructions, I am not sure what is going on. Even if it is unfinished, take some time to write out an explanation of what we are seeing.

Ideas: I think it would be cool to see the mines grow underground as your workers dig deeper. Another idea, certain folks will come to you with a problem for you to quickly solve. Simple as “Should I plant corn or tend to the mines?”
