The time is right... for making videogames! The Timezone Lottery Klik Jam happens on the first Saturday of every month, at a time chosen randomly by our top-of-the-line numerical hour-choosing machines. This month, it takes place at 3:30 pm UTC. Whenever that time rolls around for you, you have two hours to make a game! How can I possibly make a game in that short a timespan, you gasp? There are many game-making tools available, but the most ludicrous and welcoming of all is Klik & Play. If you want to give K&P a shot, we have a Learning KNP FAQ available, as well as some advice on making it work on modern machines. Making games is its own reward, but it can be much, much more rewarding when you're doing it with friends. To get the most out of this worldwide internet game jam, come talk with everyone on IRC. It's a great way to share this awesome experience, and get quick help when things aren't going right. Our server is irc.freenode.net, and our channel is #glorioustrainwrecks. After you've made your game, upload it here! For more information, check out the N00B FAQ. Sign up below to get a reminder email the day before the jam! | ||

(Yeesh,that's a mouthful.) Why did I make the logo look like a neon sign? This event is....well....an event that takes place 6am-12pm at a random date. (If this continues.) Sure,I guess. But this starts tomorrow,so,yeah. You still don't have alot of time. OF COURSE! (credit goes to Cool Text for the cheesy yet epic fonts used here) Now get making! Good luck. | ||

Inspired by this. From now until the start of Pirate Kart V, we're gonna collaborate on a single level, and then submit it to the Kart! Some rules/guidelines:
Submit WIP versions as an attachment to COMMENTS, not as a new game. The final version will get submitted as a game entry to PKV but WIP versions as game entries will just clutter up the database. Start: 4:00 pm
End: 6:00 pm
The Klik of the Month Klub meets right here on this very website on the third Saturday of every month at 4pm Pacific Time (taking daylight savings into consideration) for a two hour Klik & Play Showdown. Everyone who participates gets two hours to create something from scratch in Klik & Play. Abusing the stock objects is encouraged. If you really loathe Klik & Play you can use whatever game development platform you want. Two hours is a pretty tight time limit, though, so choose wisely! Klik & Play is absolutely free to download, and learning it takes minutes, so everyone can get in on the action. Want to talk to your fellow Klikwreckers? Join us on IRC -- server irc.freenode.net, channel #glorioustrainwrecks. We've also got a Mumble voice chat server -- just connect to glorioustrainwrecks.com using Mumble and you can talk to us like real human beings! Join the mayhem! After you've made your game, you should upload it here! For more information, check out the KotM N00B FAQ. Sign up below if you want to get reminded by email the day before the klikkening begins! | ||

So this Saturday was SUPPOSED to be the Timezone Lottery Klik Jam. But who can think of jamming for only two hours on a separate event when GDC IS NEXT WEEK!? SO LET'S USE THIS WEEKEND TO MAKE THE PIRATE KART EVEN MORE MASSIVE!! ![]() LET'S DO Pirate* Kart V: The 2012**-in-one Glorious Developers Konference Kollection!!! (*games not pirated. **will not contain 2012 games. unless it does) It's happening RIGHT NOW!
The deadline is: NO DEADLINE JUST KEEP MAKING GAMES!!! The launcher will continue to download games even while AT GDC!!! Click the giant green button to sign-up/submit your game! Want to try out the launcher before GDC? Get it HERE!
Q. What is this? We're making loads of awesome and/or terrible games and taking them to GDC to blow minds with them! Over the weekend of February 25th-26th, everyone is invited to make as many games as they can and submit them here! After the event is over, we will package the games up into a launcher like we did with previous Pirate Karts! And then this March we will be showing them off in a kiosk at the Game Developer's Conference!!! The kiosk will even continue to download games while on the show floor! Q. Who can participate? ANYONE! EVERYONE! If you or anyone you know makes games, or even just has an interest in making games, we would love to have you all participate! If you've never made a game before, we think Klik & Play is pretty easy to learn! but any tool is allowed and there are lots of great ones out there! Q. What are the rules? What kind of games are allowed? The Pirate Kode has only one firm rule: If the rules are getting in the way of you making games, disregard them! To put it another way: Cheating is encouraged.
Q. THIS IS AWESOME! HOW DO I PARTICIPATE? Get yourself comfortable with some development environment, then when Pirate Kart Weekend arrives, MAKE GAMES LIKE CRAZY!!! Q. I MADE A GAME(S)! HOW DO I SUBMIT IT/THEM? SWEET! First, sign up for a Glorious Trainwrecks account if you haven't yet (you can do that here). Then click this, fill in the form, upload a game and a screenshot and submit and then YOUR GAME IS IN THE KART! Q. Weren't you asking for money? It got fully moneyed on Kickstarter! Q. Where are the game ideas people gave as Kickstarter rewards? Right here! There are THIRTY games that need to get made! If you could update that spreadsheet as you start working on them and with the link when you finish, we can hopefully avoid overlap and Mike will be able to contact folks when their games are made! Q. I want to make a game, but can't code! No prob! There is a lot of free tools for your game-making needs! Klik n' Play is the classic. Outdated, limited, buggy and absolutely wonderful for churning masses games. Making games isn't just for programmers! Q. How can I hang out and chat with everybody? | ||

So this Saturday was SUPPOSED to be the Timezone Lottery Klik Jam. But who can think of jamming for only two hours on a separate event when GDC IS NEXT WEEK!? SO LET'S USE THIS WEEKEND TO MAKE THE PIRATE KART EVEN MORE MASSIVE!! ![]() LET'S DO Pirate* Kart V: The 2012**-in-one Glorious Developers Konference Kollection!!! (*games not pirated. **will not contain 2012 games. unless it does) It's happening RIGHT NOW!
The deadline is: NO DEADLINE JUST KEEP MAKING GAMES!!! The launcher will continue to download games even while AT GDC!!! Click the giant green button to sign-up/submit your game! Want to try out the launcher before GDC? Get it HERE!
Q. What is this? We're making loads of awesome and/or terrible games and taking them to GDC to blow minds with them! Over the weekend of February 25th-26th, everyone is invited to make as many games as they can and submit them here! After the event is over, we will package the games up into a launcher like we did with previous Pirate Karts! And then this March we will be showing them off in a kiosk at the Game Developer's Conference!!! The kiosk will even continue to download games while on the show floor! Q. Who can participate? ANYONE! EVERYONE! If you or anyone you know makes games, or even just has an interest in making games, we would love to have you all participate! If you've never made a game before, we think Klik & Play is pretty easy to learn! but any tool is allowed and there are lots of great ones out there! Q. What are the rules? What kind of games are allowed? The Pirate Kode has only one firm rule: If the rules are getting in the way of you making games, disregard them! To put it another way: Cheating is encouraged.
Q. THIS IS AWESOME! HOW DO I PARTICIPATE? Get yourself comfortable with some development environment, then when Pirate Kart Weekend arrives, MAKE GAMES LIKE CRAZY!!! Q. I MADE A GAME(S)! HOW DO I SUBMIT IT/THEM? SWEET! First, sign up for a Glorious Trainwrecks account if you haven't yet (you can do that here). Then click this, fill in the form, upload a game and a screenshot and submit and then YOUR GAME IS IN THE KART! Q. Weren't you asking for money? It got fully moneyed on Kickstarter! Q. Where are the game ideas people gave as Kickstarter rewards? Right here! There are THIRTY games that need to get made!
