Details

Welcome to Adam C Younis' FIRST Indie Tales Game Jam!

Indie Tales is all about learning new game dev skills and helping others do the same. This is your chance to share what you've learned over a long weekend and make something brand new!

In the last two years, the Indie Tales YouTube, Twitch and Discord communities have grown significantly. There's so much talent and passion out there; that Adam and his team wanted to do more. So they having a get together over a weekend to make some video games!

Dates

The jam will take place over the 10th - 11th of July weekend. They've made sure to use the loosest definition of these days as possible to factor out time zones, so as long as it's the 10th somewhere in the world, you can start. You can keep working right up until the last minute of the 11th in the latest timezone possible. That gives you at least two full days, no matter where you live.

Theme

You can find a shortlist below from hundreds of theme suggestions have been submitted by the community via the Indie Tales Discord Community (https://discord.com/invite/9WkRG7s) and cast your vote in the #theme-voting channel to nominate the top 10. The final theme will be picked at random from the top 10, and announced when the jam starts.

Eligibility

Anyone is welcome to join. To be in the running to win, teams must consist of either one or two participants and must meet submission criteria.

Submissions

Everything that's part of your game must be made within the jam by you or your teammate. You are more than welcome to start with any tools, engine or code base that suits you. Entries using outsourced materials may be submitted, but are ineligible to win.

Acceptable: Anything that helps you make games. (e.g. animation systems, physics and collision systems, input systems).
Not Acceptable: Any content that contributes to your game's design. (e.g sprites, animation, music, mechanics).

You own everything you make, and there's no requirement to include source code or to make your project open source, though of course you are encouraged to share as much as you're comfortable.
