I wasn’t patient enough and people over on the discord seemed interested so here we go! I have made a new discord (link below) for the new flowjam.
What Is Flowjam
If you don’t know what flowjam is, every month we send out a theme, or genre. You have one week to make a game that goes with it, making your own sprites and animations (Music is optional). However, for those who think once a month is too long, in the discord there is a new “mini-jam” feature. This allows you to host your own smaller jam for yourself, and so you don’t have to wait for the next one. One official mini-jam is announced a week too so look out for that!
The first flowjam has started! The theme for this week is Platformer
I know it is quite a broad genre of games but I feel like a lot of creativity can go into it as well.
Rules
? You cannot use Flowlab’s pre-made sprites.
? No racist, suggestive, or offensive games.
? Do not spam registrations.
? No outside resources (Sprites, textures, music, etc.)
? Flowlab music, and music by Eric Matyas (https://soundimage.org/) are allowed.
I hope to see some good games come out of this. I will be the judge of it and the prize will be a unique rank on the discord server (https://discord.gg/AnQGwvV).
Edit: After speaking with @Crigence we thought up of a prize I think people will like. He is currently working on a website for flowjam, and winners will have their accounts advertized on the website. I will also make a custom desktop bakckground themed to the winner’s game. Hope this will motivate people to make a good game!
I don’t know if people saw because this post has been taken really low but we have prizes worth while. Me and @Crigence both discussed some better prizes, go take a look at the main post!
