Rules & Elegibility for Diverse Game Developers Game Jam!


Rules:

  • You must create an original game for the game jam and you must develop it during the duration of the event.

  • You are allowed to submit the game to multiple game jams as long as the game was developed during the period of this event.

  • You are free to use any game engine or framework when creating the game.

  • Teams can include up to 6 members.

  • All games must be uploaded and submitted by August 19th, 2021 by 23:59 UTC. Please ensure you give yourself enough time to do so. No exceptions or extensions will be given. 

  • Your game and several screenshots must be supplied. Entries will be invalid without these items. Your game should be uploaded to play in browser

  • Please include details about yourself / your team in the game description + links to social media platforms

    • This is to check individuals and teams meet eligibility criteria.

  • Updates can be made to entries so long as they do not add to the game or change content. They must only be to fix bugs. 

  • Individual or independent game developers must identify as a person from an underrepresented background– which may include but is not limited to LGBTQIA+, people of color, people with accessibility needs, marginalized genders, veterans, neurodiversity, or others. Alternatively, teams that participate must have at least 75% members from underrepresented communities.

    • Members of the IGDAF team may reach out to you to confirm eligibility

  • You must integrate and use Web Monetization in the game – At the end of the day, the IGDA Foundation and Grant for the Web are interested in playful innovation around the idea of monetization, specifically in the context of web monetization protocols.

Strange Umbrella

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.
