LÖVE

Hey folks! I'll be hosting a new LÖVE Jam!

Jam starts on February 25th 23PM GMT+0 and ends on March 4th 23PM GMT+0.

Rules

• Your game needs to be made with the LÖVE framework.
  If possible provide a .love file with the rest of your builds, and clearly state which version of LÖVE was used.
• Notify about mature / sensitive content.
  If your game features such content you should have some warning in the description or when the game first loads up.
• The game must be made during the jam.
  Existing basecode and libraries can be used. Games made before the jam are not basecode, and go against the spirit of the jam.
• Assets must be made during the jam.
  Logo, intro and fonts are exceptions to this rule. If you do use existing assets you must state that in your game's description and credit the author! People voting should encourage assets made during the jam.
• You can work alone or as a team. Find teammates in our Discord!
  There is no restriction on the number of members, but the more people, the harder it is to get organized, so 2/4 works best.
• Do it for the fun and the experience.
  Even though the jam is rated, the most important thing is to enjoy the challenge.
• The theme is optional.
  It will be provided as inspiration 1 day before the jam starts.

We would love to see your game submission!

Woot, woot...
But me needs that theme *starts sweating intensily*
Optional theme? Aren't some scores basedon how well the theme was used?

Neat, sounds fun! I'll probably make some time to join this one.

I have missed too many of these so It's nice to finally partake and make something cool

The games are rated based on Gameplay, Sound, Mood and Graphics, use of the theme is encouraged but not a requirement! People prefer games that make good use of the theme and took inspiration from it, it also serves as a way to know if a game was made during the jam or not

The theme is released roughly one day before the jam starts, so be prepared, the Discord always knows first, but I'll also announce it here, on Twitter and on Reddit!

I wish you all good luck, I hope to see your entries.

Maybe the theme is optional? Not as in it's an option to follow the theme or not, but the theme is the idea of having options?

We're playing mind games here.

Wrong unfortunately haha but it's not a bad idea so I'll definitely save it... who knows when I'll need a new idea for a theme

So whats the theme now?
Shouldnt it be public by now?

Looks like it hasn't been listed here yet, but the jam page says the theme is Earthquake.

I've got a weird little idea, hard to say if it'll be any good but I'm certainly gonna give it a shot!
