Thank you to our game submitters, and thank you to everyone who played these games! Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, and though sometimes we like to continue things after their due date, alas we can not! I hope you had lots of fun playing new games and I hope the game authors got lots of things to think about!

With all that, prepare yourselves for the upcoming 16th Alakajam, coming on 9 September! See you soon!

It is time for Feedback Fortnight! How does this work? Show us your game! Look at everyone else's game! Comment!

To reiterate the rules, submit a game you want commentary on. It can be near anything, but it must be free and legal to play for anyone here. An old game you are polishing? Perhaps you didn't finish the last alakajam on time but want people to see it anyway? That sekrit project you've been working on but haven't told anyone? Something you are looking to get ready for commercial release? Just looking for bug testers? Just have a handful of ideas and want to see if the game might be fun? As long as you there is no monetary component it will be fine to post here.

Then, go play all the other games. Give your opinion. You can give as much or as little detail as you want. Remember to be nice, since someone took the courage to post their work here. Remember to give constructive feedback.

There are no ratings, no prizes, none of that. At the end, we will thank our most prolific feedback givers.

This is to help each other make better games.

You can look at this for more rules.

Since there is no "race" component of Feedback Fortnight, there is no reason you shouldn't submit early or late! We are opening submission posts shortly after the posting of the message. If your game is ready for comments, feel free to submit your game, and make a post telling us all about it! The official schedule is that we start giving Feedback on July 15th, but if you play a game before then and have something to say there is no reason to wait.

Submissions will be closed July 24 so that there is a full week of nothing new submitted, so those determined to give good feedback on every game will have a full week to do so.

Thank you everyone in advance for playing and evaluating all of the games! Together we can make our games better!

With the 15th Alakajam over, we move on to our next event, the Feedback Fortnight! Do you have something you want to show people? Did you not finish in time for alakajam but still want people to see? Do you have project that you've been working on for years? Do you just have some screenshots you want feedback on? If you want some feedback, this is your event!

How does it work? Post your project. Then, look at other projects, and evaluate them. Look at the descriptions and see if there is something in particular they want feedback on. Remember there is someone who is reading this, so don't just say mean things. Write up your constructive criticism, and we will share our ideas and thoughts to help each other make better games!

Feedback Fortnight 2022 starts soon so get your project ready to share with others! Chase that game breaking bug away, write up enough documentation so someone else will understand how to play package it up, it doesn't have to be perfect, just enough to show others! The event officially starts July 15, but we will open submissions soon! We can't wait to see your projects!

It's official: the results for the 15th Alakajam! are finally out! You can find the results below.

Solo winners | Team winners | Unranked games

Big congratulations to all the winners!

We hope you had fun during this game jam as well as during the review phase! This summer event was a bit peculiar as our smallest Alakajam yet, which I hope wasn't too disappointing in terms of competition. Hopefully you still got a satisfying amount of feedback too!

Upcoming events

• The next event will be the Feedback Fortnight 2022, which will start on July 15th. It will be a chance for you to share any game project you've been working on, and exchange feedback.
• The 15th Alakajam! will be held September 9-11, so make sure to book the date!

For this jam I made (kind of) a sequel to Batterycorp, my Ludum Dare 39 game.

Glad to have finished a jam game after being unable to finish or unable to participate for the last couple of times.

The process of 48 hours was really fun in general. I was really panic when trying to draw my very first pixel art game, it is quite challenging but I did overcome that. Also, I learn how to make music and hopefully it is suitable with gameplay.

Enjoy the building process and playing games.

Quite happy I finished, because I don't normally take part in 48h game jams (if you're curious to know why, see my entry).

Good luck to everyone still struggling with their games! <3

This was the very first Game Jam I have ever partecipated in, and I was able to finish the game. Indeed, there are a lot of things that could be improved with more time, but I'm satisfied (here the entry).
This is the second game I have ever made, and I completely underestimated the time required to draw and animate the sprites, I spent all saturday on graphics while in my original plan they should have been ready in 3 hours of work (ah, what a fool XD)
It was really exahusting, and today I had to rush to get everything completed.

I had the great idea of streaming on twitch the whole process of making the game, which took me a lot of energies. I really learned a lot of things, and now I am really curious to see how other partecipants interpreted the theme and what they managed to do.

Good luck to everyone who partecipated, I look forward to play your games!

This was my first game jam. I went way too ambitious. I tried to do too much new stuff and I just got bogged down. I learned a ton and had fun, but it's clear to me at this point I'm not going to finish. I can't wait to try again on the next one!

Good luck everyone!

This is the first game jam I have every join and it is also a chance for me to learn how to draw pixel art. I am really excited about this theme and decided to make simple platformer game.
