Summer is almost over, but let’s celebrate the last of the season with a dot big bang game jam!
This is meant to be a relaxing and fun jam, so make your game as simple or complex as you like. Theme your game after anything that summer means to you. Warm sunshine, cool lakes, camping, hiking, school vacations, gardening, farmers markets, bike riding, summer storms, scuba diving, watermelon, fireworks, go karts, volleyball, water balloons, disc golf, fairs, the possibilities are endless!
When the jam is over, we will add the games to an event showcase and do a stream to play through them all. As a extra treat, we will also give out a special dot big bang avatar to everyone who participates 😀
The deadline for submission is Sept.8th, skins will be handed out to participants shortly after the jam ends.
