10/12 – OFFICIAL GAME JAM END (kinda)

TODAY IS ALSO THE DAY BUT IN A DIFFERENT WAY

Today we’re closing out our Fall Game Jam…
as quickly as it began, it ended…      </3     :((

The link to the submission form is attached to this post, but it’s also in the discord. There’s like guidelines and stuff on there, so just like follow them and you’ll be fine or something (but if you have issues, ping an officer!).

(Hey you! Yeah, you! I have a secret that I’m not supposed to tell to anyone, but since you specifically happen to be my favorite gccer, I’ll let you in on it. Our showcase meeting isn’t till after break, so even though the jam officially ends today, you can totally keep working on your game till then!! That’s like, so much extra time!! Good secret, yeah?)

We’re kicking off our Fall Game Jam today! Meet us in ACCAD at the top floor of Sullivant Hall at 6 PM, or start with us remotely.

The theme is PLANT with an optional, secondary theme of HORROR.

Below is the schedule for the rest of the weekend (submissions due at 6 PM on Sunday!).
