I made a thing…

(might take a moment to load)

I'm going to try and finish a game for once! Wish me luck and good luck to everyone else :)

I hereby commit to doing something for this jam!

I'm stuck. All I can do is doodle.

With the theme now revealed, the 14th Alakajam! has started. Let's make games :)

If you're entering the competitive, ranked jam, and are unsure what you're allowed to do, please check this page for the detailed rules of the jam (in particular the "What is allowed?" section).

Submission times

The end of the jam is depending on whether you pick ranked or unranked. You can create your game page at any time during the jam (and update it any time after it's created):

• Ranked: Sunday 7:00pm UTC, which means you have 48 hours (+1 hour for late entries to create their page).
• Unranked: Monday 10:00pm UTC, which means you have a bit more than 72 hours.

Big thanks to @DanaePlays and @Aurel300 for hosting the awesome launch stream! If you missed it, you can still find it on her Twitch channel.

Cool things to do during the jam

• Write a blog post: Share your thoughts on the theme, post your progress, images of food or gifs of cute animals. You can also free to use posts for advertising live jam streams.
• Tweet about #alakajam and follow the alakajam Twitter account
• Initialize your game page early!

Have a nice week-end all of you, and see you on the other side!

I was going to create a new framework this week but got lazy and distracted. Not sure what I'll do but most likely I'll keep it simple.

I'll be using the usual tools:

Krita
Pencil, pen, and paper
HTML/JavaScript/jQuery
Possibly REPLICA Framework
BeepBox

Good luck everyone.

@BalBoom, @Thrainsa and I will be back this week-end for a small 3D game! We'll be making our entry using Unity & Blender, and hopefully I can find enough time to work on sound & music using Reason.

Here's our last couple entries from 2020 in case anyone remembers playing them :)

Hey guys! I missed the last Alakajam, but I'm really happy to participate again. I will be using pico-8 which I haven't used in a while. Looking forward to it!

I'd like to cobble something. I'm getting really rusty and haven't been really completing stuff. The goal is to set expectations really low this time.

I'll be going with Allegro again.
