The theme is:
Point of No Return
Let this theme inspire you to make whatever your heart desires. Or just make some other dumb meme stuff. There are no minimum skill requirements, the points are made up to encourage you to play, and anything you contribute makes the whole experience better for everyone!
…and one more thing!
EVERY SINGLE USER has been given a PERMANENT SCRIPTING BOOST
Baseline char count has been increased to 2000 chars!
Every user now has 1 public script slot by default.
What the heck is this again anyway?
This is NOT YOUR TRADITIONAL GAME JAM. This is h a c k m u d; so we are doing things our way! Instead of separate submission and voting periods, there will be a 7-day window to submit, play, vote, edit, and ship the best version of your script that matches the game jam theme. Players can vote anytime during the 7-day event window.
- Submit: Players will be able to register one Game Jam entry per account.
- Play and Vote: Players can try out scripts and vote anonymously in the CLI.
Voting:
- Each player gets 3 total votes for the duration of the event per account.
- Votes can be changed during the event (e.g., switch an upvote to a downvote or vice versa, rescind a vote if you have reached your max votes and wish to change your vote to a different script).
- Chosen judges will have substantially extra votes - sway them over for their support!
