GMC Jam ヽ( ｡ ヮﾟ)ノ Chat
(thanks to Zeddidragon)

The GMCJam CountDown Clock

UPDATE:

The competition has now ended: congratulations to all the entrants! Voting will now begin and the winners will be decided.

Make sure to post reviews and your votes in the OFFICIAL GAMES TOPIC.





-------

The GMC jam is up to lucky number seven! Join the GMC Jam #7 on Saturday 28th July through Monday 30th for 72 hours of game development. There will be prizes, awards, and you get to make a game alongside other awesome developers! Don't have that weekend free? Make it free! This opportunity only occurs 312 times in the average lifetime after all.

WHAT IS IT?

The Jam is a community event that we organise to encourage people to experiment with GM and make something that will be interesting or entertaining within the limited timescale of 72 hours.

WHEN IS IT?

• Starts Saturday 28th July
• 72 hours long from 00:01 AM GMT Saturday 28th ...to... 23:59 PM GMT Monday 30th

THEME

• Each Jam has a theme, and participants are encouraged to use it!
• This Jam has a handicap too and you are also encouraged to use it!
• Using the theme is NOT obligatory, nor is using the handicap, but using either will be valued when voting and using BOTH gets extra Kudos!!!
• To encourage use of theme, the highest-voted theme-based game gets to choose the theme for next Jam.
• The theme will not be revealed until just before the start of the Jam to prevent any advantages.

VOTING

• All games are eligible (themed and non-themed and with or without handicap), but voters should take "use of theme" into account. (Remember: non-theme games can win, but they CANNOT pick the next Jam's theme; see above)
• Voters choose 1st, 2nd and 3rd place as well as three special votes to "Best use of theme", "Best Presentation", and the "Best Devblog".
• It is OBLIGATORY that when voting you leave feedback about WHY you voted for the game(s) you chose. Failure to do so will result in your votes being removed.
• In order to encourage friendly community spirit, we ask that members not vote for their own game and please refrain from asking friends/family to do so if they are not part of this community.
• Any form of cheating will result in the instant removal of your game from the Jam and being blacklisted for all further community events

PARTICIPATING

• All games must be original creations specifically for the Jam, but you may use whatever resources you wish : EG. dll, scripts, sprites and sounds etc etc etc...
• You may submit as many games as you wish, but only the highest rated game in the final vote will be eligible for winning any prizes.
• Games must be posted in the Official Games Topic before the finish deadline for the Jam, and posting a topic in the Games forum here at the GMC is recommended if you want feedback and opinions as the Games Topic is ONLY FOR POSTING GAMES. Hosting is up to the individual user. You may also include and update a development log in your official games topic post.
• The Official Games Topic must contain a link to your game and a short description.
• HTML5 Games are permitted, BUT MUST HAVE DOWNLOADABLE .EXE VERSION posted in the Official Games Topic.
• People are welcome to use any outside sites, and are also welcome to promote such sites, but the posting of topics and the voting will be done on the GMC.
• Teams are encouraged and can be organised by you with whomever you wish or you can participate in a random team (see below for more details)

OFFICIAL PRIZES

• The Community Prize will be as before... A special graphic/banner, bragging rights and (if your game is a themed game) the possibility of choosing the next Jam theme.
• Prizes will also be offered as members of the community contribute whatever the feel appropriate. EG: Coverage on their web site, custom graphics for the game, a video of the gameplay for YouTube...anything!

ADDITIONAL PRIZES

These are prizes kindly and very generously offered to us by GMC members. Donate your time/experience/whatever to this community endeavor! If you wish to add a community prize (game reviews, advertising etc...) please send a PM to Nocturne or True Valhalla and we will add it to this post.

PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR COMMUNITY PRIZE IN THIS TOPIC AS WE MAY NOT SEE IT!

Try not to let all of the prizes dominate 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. Try to avoid awarding last place though... You may choose who gets your prize including: competitors, reviewers, winners of specific categories, or even the best development log!

I'd join...as long as I am paid no money or get any gifts other than banners.

[makerofthegames]

I am looking forward to this.

If you do win a prize, it is your choice whether to accept it or not. Donate it to charity if you want.

[JacksonYarr]

I think it's about time I finished and released a game - and the Jam seems like a good place to start. Assuming nothing else pops up, then it looks like I'll be participating in this one.

Bring out the butter (Jam), we're gonna make toast (Games)!

Everyone join. The GMC Jam is a lot of fun.

[Snail_Man]

Awesome! I love a new jam topic

I'm definitely going to join, and I'm also planning to be on a team.

Bring it on, other contestant people

I'll think about potential prizes I might be able to offer.

On account of his being on vacation during the time slot, I have fired Speedchuck from applying to be on my team. His negligence is disappointing.
Translation: He can't get to a computer with GameMaker on it.

I'm going solo this Jam! Lookout!

[11clock]

I will join this, the creator of previous jam entries Falling for Milk and Sleepy Maneuver, the great, the magnificent, the asombroso, the one and only, CLOCKEH!

I'll offer a reward, a congratulatory video filmed a week in advance. So, it's not really a reward. It totally is though. I'll be like, complimenting specific things that I think are in the game, it'll be great.

I don't have the time to enter a game this time, but I'd like to support this event. To that end, I'll be giving reviews to every game that I can play, and I'm offering a copy of Rayman: Origins on Steam to whoever I personally deem best use of theme (Total Value: $30).

Good luck, guys! And may the odds be ever in your favor!
