Thank you to all who showed an interest in War Child's charity game jam, and submitted a game. We will be reviewing the games this month.

Many thanks,

Yes if you would like to submit more then one you are very welcome to!

Hi there, 

Thank you for your interest in the jam! The days do not have to be consecutive, so you would be fine to spend 2 days, and then 4 days at a later date. 

Best Wishes,

Adam - War Child

Hello Itch.io -ers!

Firstly, a massive thank you to everyone who has shown an interest in War Child's charity game jam project 'HELP'. As a team, we are delighted with how many game designers are open to helping our cause.

If you would like to run any ideas past War Child's gaming team, please do let us know, we are always happy to jump on a call to talk through ideas, or share more about our cause and how your game could help. 

There is just under one month remaining of this jam, we can't wait to see your creativity. 

Any technical questions too please do share and we will see if we can help.

Many thanks & happy jaming!

Hi Xavier, 

Yes we are accepting builds from Unity. War Child will be working with a 3rd party publisher to launch the final game onto iOS & Android, so you do not require a developer license. 

Let me know if I can share more info.

Best,

Adam- War Child

Hi Squeaky Wheel, apologies for the delay in coming back to you! If the topic of a casual mobile game is too broad, you could look at relating your game abstractly to War Child's charity mission. We focus on education, livelihoods and protection for children who are living through the traumas of war. 

Many thanks,
War Child Gaming Team

Hi DescX, thank you for the support, 2016's 'HELP: THE GAME' on Steam was full of really fun titles, we're looking forward to seeing what comes out of 2017's jam!

Hi Farazinc, we hear you, and will be looking at supporting other engines in 2018! Thanks, Adam - War Child
