With the theme now revealed, the 10th Alakajam! has started! Good luck to all! And consider supporting high scores for a chance to be entered in the tournament following the jam.

Big thanks to @DanaePlays and @Aurel300 for hosting the awesome launch stream! If you missed it, you can still watch the replay on her Twitch channel. If you like The Elder Scrolls, you will also enjoy Danae's regular streams, where she usually goes exploring the huge world of Morrowind.

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: September 20th 7:00pm UTC, which means you have 48 hours (+1 hour for late entries to create their page).
• Unranked: September 21th 10:00pm UTC, which means you have a bit more than 72 hours

Cool things to do during the jam

• Stream your development process. Join the event as a streamer from your dashboard to let everyone know about it, and possibly get featured on the front page during the week-end! This will also have the side effect to let you enter the streamer competition.
• 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.
• Come relax on the Discord server, tweet about #alakajam and/or follow the alakajam Twitter account.
• Initialize your game page early!

Everyone have a nice week-end, and see you on the other side ;)

I hereby join this jam with a team potentionally counting 4 heads.

We have been training for this task relentlessly for the past 9 months by keeping our backsides tied to our pewdiepie-branded videogaming chairs.

We have set it as our sole goal to release a videogame that shall make you hurl, cry and defecate upon your brand new supreme-branded t-shirt and sparkling white new Jordans.

Hello everyone!
Back and to the Jam!

This time due to constraints I'll be Jaming alone.
Going for something minimalistic!

Engine: Unity
Graphics: Aseprite, Krita
Audio: Bosca Ceoil, Vegas, Guitar

Streaming as much as I can!
Check out all the streamers!

Sometimes the themes are good, sometimes they don't matter and sometimes they can mess up the jam.
I like the idea of being able to choose from 3 themes.

I will be joining for the sixth time. I also wish everybody a lots of creativity and edurance for the Jam!!!

My partner in crime ( @Titaninette ) and I are in!
It'll be a first time in the world of gamedev and game jam for her, so it'll be very interesting for both of us :)

We'll use :

• Haxe for the code language
• Heaps / LED / CastleDB for the framework and tools
• Aseprite to expose to the world my "beautiful" pixel art
• Probably Beepbox for the music
• And BFXR for the blip bloop things.

Good lick to all of you! 👅

Well hello there

I'm offering my services as a composer (no payment required of course) this weekend, to get involved in the 10th Alakajam!

If you're a dev and cooking a lil sutt'n up this weekend that you think… hmmm…. would be nice to have some TASTY AUDIO to go with these DELICIOUS VISUALS then I might be your guy :D

Limited portfolio at www.shanechauhan.com, these are mostly combat tracks for Action genre. Just to give you some examples - I can compose for most genres and styles :)

Let's talk if you're interested (negative_harmony_0@protonmail.com)

Best o' luck to everyone this weekend!

I AM IN

As normal I will be streaming all my developments on https://www.twitch.tv/timbeaudet so follow there!

The themes seem to be a swarm around sailing on a ship over the waves of the ocean. The clouds will come from wind and rain on your paths to the moon. Travel with your map so separation is not a problem. Play your cards right and this generation will swap chains like clockwork.

Not sure the themes are fun but I will be testing out my new physics engine which barely has balls working.
