The theme of the game jam voted on by participants is Parallel Worlds
Feel free to share progress of games you're working for it around the fediverse. We have a hashtag on the microblogging platforms #FediverseJam and there are engine specific communities like godot, unity, unreal, etc. that you can find on programming.dev
The jam will last for nine days before submissions to the itch.io page close https://itch.io/jam/summer-fediverse-jam
Ill be streaming games submitted to the jam and will do a video showcasing the entries once results are out
Hope you enjoy! Ill be aiming to run these twice a year as a way to encourage some more game dev activity around the fediverse
I don't understand. What does the fediverse have to do with the jam? Do you have to use mastodon/lemmy in you game somehow?
@sirdorius @Ategon I think it's just that discussion about it happens on the fediverse, and it was started by some people on the fediverse. Otherwise there doesn't seem to be anything special about it.
