To celebrate the release of Usagi Engine v1, let's do a casual game jam! This is a great way to try the engine out.

The jam starts on a Friday morning and ends two Mondays after. That way everyone's got two weekends and the time between to work on their game.

There's one rule: submissions must be made using Usagi Engine. Please don't use AI agents to code your game. The spirit of the jam is about learning, trying out the engine, and having fun.

Usagi games are coded in Lua. Code and assets live reload as you change them and cross-platform export, including web, is just a single command.

Download the engine and read through the engine's docs to get started: https://usagiengine.com

The theme for the jam will be revealed when the jam starts!
