We're all excited for the Game Jam to start! But First, RULES.


Rules:

  1. Anyone can participate - even if you are overseas! - as long as At Least ONE Team Member is located in Sweden

  2. You can participate as a solo developer as well - as a Team of 1 !
    Maximum team size is 5.

  3. Teams may enter as many entries as they wish - but each team may only win ONE prize in a single category (eg. if your best game gets the 1st place in your entry category, and another of your game would have won the 3rd place or the honourable mention as well, you will only be receiving the 1st place award)

  4. Games must be for the following platforms ONLY:
    - PC
    - Console
    - Mobile
    No VR or game requiring specialty hardware** will be taken into consideration for the awards. However, you can make use of any AR functionalities that exist with smartphones in your game.

    ** You can still submit it to the jam, but we won't be taking them into consideration for the awards due to potential lack of equipment required for fair judging

  5. Submissions should be in the Safe for Work category. We want to keep the jam respectable, friendly and fun for everyone - so please do keep the content that way too! We recommend reading Game Jolt's Guidelines to make sure you don't get banned.
