We're back with the Wholesome Games Jam, a 48 hour Game Jam starting September 13th 0:00 GMT. It's a pretty low-key jam without competition element so you can focus on having fun and making new connections.

  • Anyone can join of any skill level as long as you're a member of the  Wholesome Games Discord server. 
  • Read the #jam-info channel thoroughly
  • You can join in teams of 2-6 people. No solo teams are allowed.
  • There are other ways to participate if you have little time or this is your first jam! You can read all about that in our #jam-info channel
  • You can press the "Join jam" button above to let us know you're interested in joining, but it's not mandatory. 
  • Every team must be registered through our #teams channel on the Discord server until September 9th.
