The winning vote will be announced on the day of the jam at 9am (see it revealed first on  twitch.tv/stikkzmedia, stream starting around 8am... TBC) !


When can I start making my game?

You may only make your game within the time frame, updates are allowed after the game has been submitted up until the deadline.


Is the jam ranked?

Yes, your entry will be judged by other entrants and the public on:

  • 'Does it fit the theme'
  • Sounds
  • Music 
  • Art assets


What does the winning game get?

Well, they get bragging rights of course! And maybe some sort of a trophy... we'll see.

The Rules

Any games that do not follow these rules may be removed from the jam.

  • You may only make your game within the time frame, updates are allowed after the game has been submitted up until the deadline.
  • You must follow the Itch.io TOS.
  • We'd prefer you make all assets during the jam, but it's not always possible, so if you use assets created outside of the jam, from 3rd parties, etc, just let us know when you submit your entry, there's a section on the submission form.
  • No AI-Generated Content.
  • If you use 3rd party assets make sure you have a license/permission to use them.
  • There is a 2 hour hot fix window once the deadline hits so you can fix your bugs until 5pm.
  • Entries will remain hidden until the submission deadline at 3pm on the 26th October.
  • No harassment of any kind.
  • No NSFW content, No Pornographic Content or Nudity, No Illicit Drug References, No offensive content, No excessive gore/violence.
  • No spam entries, no entering games that have been submitted to other jams. Your game will be removed if it's thought to be a spam entry.
  • Read the rules. Not reading the rules is not an excuse for breaking them.
  • The idea is to create something, test your skills and have fun.
  • Good luck
