THE WORLD CUP JAM STARTS OCTOBER 14!

Get ready to make a themed game and score prizes in celebration of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar ⚽🔥

GOOOOOOOOAL!!! 🏆⚽🌟 Congratulations to the winners of the World Cup Jam!

Great games, everyone! See who scored the win below.

We're so excited to see what you come up with using the World Cup theme! Let's celebrate the 2022 World Cup in Qatar by making GAMES!

Finally some graphics! I know they are simple but I think they match the gameplay of the game. Please consider it's still WIP, there are several stuff missing (audio, text, etc) and bugs to fix. Will share more tomorrow.

Meet our pitch panel for the World Cup Jam!

In addition to the $20,000 prize pool, winners will score mentorship to pitch their games to investors and publishers from Plug and Play Middle East, Riot Forge, YallaPlay Games and Numbase Group. 🏆

COUNTDOOOWN:

The World Cup Jam is only a few hours away!

Some progress with our players animations! Featuring the German Shepherd representing Germany (duh)

Finished work on the emotions of a new character for the tank universe
