Starting December 1st till the 31th, Our First Game Jam is being held. 2020 may have been one of the worse years yet but as we approach Christmas, the holiday spirt is in all of us so that is why we are hosting a X-MAS themed Game Jam. Finalists will share in a total prize pool of around 5k Bricks + Items and Badges. Here’s how it breaks down:

  • First place: 3000 Bricks + Trophy + Badge
  • Second place: 1500 Bricks + Badge
  • Third place: 500 Bricks + Badge
  • Forth to Tenth Place: Badge

You may be wondering what you'll be judged on and the guidelines? Don't worry! We've got you covered.

  • You’ll be judged on your overall idea, game design, interactivity, wow factor and more.
  • Games submitted should have a significant part of them developed during the month of the Game Jam – from December 1st until the final deadline at midnight (EST) on December 31st.
  • You’re encouraged to work in a team but only one person can submit the game.
  • If your scene consists of a game with rules that aren’t obvious, you should provide instructions such as if you want people to follow a certain direction, PLEASE BE CLEAR ON THAT.

You can resubmit stuff as long as you resubmit it before the deadline.
