It’s time to start building. You have exactly one week from today to create a brand new game for the Boomblox Game Jam.
We have five themes for you to choose from. You can stick to just one, or combine a few if you're feeling creative:
Borrowed Time: Time is a resource that can be spent, traded, stolen, or gifted.
Shared Resources: All players draw from the same pool.
The Environment Is Alive: The map acts like another player.
Escalation: The longer a match lasts, the weirder it becomes.
Reverse Progression: Start overpowered and gradually lose abilities.
Rules
You need to pick at least one of these themes and make sure it’s clearly mentioned in your game's description. To make sure everyone can find your entry (even users without Discord), your game title MUST start with [GameJam]. All games must be submitted before July 4th (EST).
Prizes
Depending on how many people enter, we might add more awards, but here is what you can expect right now:
Overall Winner: B$ 50,000 + 6 months of TBC
Theme Winner: B$ 10,000 + 3 months of TBC
Participant: B$ 250 + 1 month of BC + a Hat
How we are going to judge submissions
We’re going to be looking closely at a few things: how unique your game is, how well you innovate with the engine, your overall creativity, and replayability (is it fun by yourself? with 2 people? with a full server?).
You have one week starting NOW. Drop your game link in the Discord submissions channel (#submit-bgj) using a spoiler tag, along with any extra details you want to show off.
Have fun, and get to building!
