Focus of the Jam: Creativity over Code

Important: This day is not about finishing a complete, polished game. The goal is to brainstorm a strong concept and build the first building blocks of a project.

You can work on anything that sparks your interest, such as:

  • 🕹️ Mini-Prototypes: Simple, playable mechanics.
  • 🎨 Art & Character Design: First sketches or 3D models.
  • 📜 Storytelling: Narrative arcs and world-building.
  • 💡 Gameplay Concepts: Innovative mechanics and ideas.
  • 🗺️ Level Sketches: Mapping out worlds and concept art.
