This is an Anti Scope Creep Jam. It is open to All Ages. You have three days to make something. Anything. Set a goal and ignore scope creep. Throw perfectionism to the wind. Make exactly what you set out to do and finish it within that time. Let it be unpolished, a little bit terrible, but make it finished . Most Importantly KILL YOUR DARLINGS Rules: This jam is NOT RANKED . There is NO PRIZE other than creating something. You may begin planning your project as soon as this jam is open to participants. This can include: Outlining, script writing, creating a design document, creating concept art, etc. But the main work should be done during the jam . WITH THE EXCEPTION THAT: You may use this time to work on a project that is already in progress if you would prefer, but the main goal should be to complete or finish some major aspect within that time. For Example: Finishing a full outline, finishing a script draft, finishing a first draft, finishing a playable alpha, etc. You may use premade assets including ones you have already made, free assets, or purchased assets. You MAY NOT utilize generative AI in any way. Including, but not limited to: Concept generation, placeholder asset making, permanent asset making, concept art, etc. You may create any kind of project that can be hosted on Itch, including: TTRPGs, Video Games, Short Stories/Novellas, Art Zines, Poetry Collections, Comics, or Other. You may not submit asset packs for this jam. This includes: Fonts, BGM music packs, …
