Can you team up in a flowjam? I am making a team of four people, that is probably going to be unfair. But we are all 6th graders. We are only teaming up because other people can create games while we are in school.

What is the prize for the next flowjam? I need to know just to determine how we might split the prize, even though we definitely won’t win.

When is the date of when the flowjam starts going to be out?

Please add any other things / additional rules you know about it so we won’t get disqualified.

Teaming is allowed in flowjams (There is no limit on how large a team can be, but for fair play, I would say 2-4 should be the max)

The prize isn’t known until grazer announces it, for the last jam it was a Nintendo Switch Lite.

I believe the date is announced about a week before it actually starts.

For additional information, you can use things made before the jam like music, but it all must be listed

Personally, I don’t think you would want a team more than 2-4 players anyway. At that point, you would all be running into each other and making mass amounts of stuff that probably won’t end up working for the final product. Plus everyone has their own artstyle and experience that sometimes working alone can be better.

If you do plan to make a team, I highly recommend you take charge and direct certain users to what they best fit at, code, music, art, etc, and they should work on that part only unless they can multitask to help produce a decent game.

Teams are allowed, but understand only one person gets the prize. I’ve done teams many times, each time doing pretty well. More people does mean more complications, I prefer working with just one other person.
