F.A.Q:
Some users ask me if a team participation wins the game jam the prize is for each members of the team?
No, sorry for that right now is just for one person alone.
I would consider to add a 4th option - Money/Gift card or digital content because if the winner lives in a different country he/she might need to pay import charges to receive a physical product which can also easily lost as in some countries the postal service is extremely bureaucratic. May hold the shipment if they think anything is wrong with the address, can’t read a letter or something and claim to return it to sender but they never actually do it and blame the foreign colleges lost it and there is nothing you can do not even if it was a tracked delivery because tracking does not apply in case it is returned due to wrong address. And if it never been tracked they go ahead and steal it, report it lost, claim never received…etc
I’ve been dealing with this a lot, in most countries you can not trust the local services, your best option for shipping is to use an international service like UPS, DHL, FedEx where the shipment stay with them from start to finish and if they need to rely on 3rd party service to cover an area, their foreign office take responsibility for the shipment but it can be expensive if you want to ship something worth less than $100 because the shipping might cost more than the product you are sending.
Preparing a lot of assets for the game jam, in time if any of the participant want to use those assets just send me an email or make request in the jam community and I give a promo code to download all assets available. Availabe assets
I really like game jams and gdevelop is pretty much perfect for fast prototyping. What I would suggest though is to have a theme. I have found it is really helpful for jams since it focuses your thinking. You could also try 2 or 3 themes so that the participants can choose one that suits them.
I joined and will probably make something unless august turns out to be too hectic…
It is usually up to the jam host to decide on a theme… If you want to have a poll just do one on whether there should be one theme, multiple themes or no themes at all and take it from there…
to the winner of the jam
