the legend of zelda: breath of the wild (2017)

"Open World" games are the current "hot" thing in video games right now. these games are vast, have massive budgets and take years to make. but I believe that they can be made within weeks, on a budget of $0.


far cry

the goal of the open-world jam is to make one of these games. what defines an open-world game? well it's very loosely defined. but here's some things
- large map with lots of points of interest
- back of the game box would describe it as "vast" or "a massive game world" or such
- a continuous space with no load times (YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS PART IF YOU DON'T WANT)
- lots of "collectables" and "items"

see how much of the player's time you can fill with as little effort as possible. maybe some procedurally generated content? maybe some large, sparse expanses?

FAQ:

Q: is yume nikki an "open world game"?
A: yes

Q: what if I can't make a world that big?
A: you can make it very small, it's allowed

Q: is [game] an open world game?
A: let's just say yes

Q: may I submit an unfinished game?
A: all open world games are unfinished in some way, so yes

feel free to play fast and loose with the concept. now go! out! into the world!

24th of April is Glorious Trainwrecks' 15th anniversary, so let's have a game jam! We'll start two days before and go about a week after. Feel free to add games made before then as well. Participants may make games in Klik'n'Play, Knytt Stories, Construct, Clickteam Fusion, Game Maker, Ren'py, Bitsy, RPG Maker, Powerpoint, or anything that games can be made in. (Please let people know if your game requires anything special to play, though!)

SPECIAL CHALLENGES:
--Make a game in two hours
--Make a game that looks like it was made in two hours
--Make a game in a new-to-you engine
--Make a game in an older/more "basic" engine
--Make a game celebrating the LBGT+ community
--Make a game about your favorite game
--Make a game about your daily life
--Make a game about anything you want!
and most importantly of all...
--Have fun!!!

the legend of zelda: breath of the wild (2017)

"Open World" games are the current "hot" thing in video games right now. these games are vast, have massive budgets and take years to make. but I believe that they can be made within weeks, on a budget of $0.


far cry

the goal of the open-world jam is to make one of these games. what defines an open-world game? well it's very loosely defined. but here's some things
- large map with lots of points of interest
- back of the game box would describe it as "vast" or "a massive game world" or such
- a continuous space with no load times (YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS PART IF YOU DON'T WANT)
- lots of "collectables" and "items"

see how much of the player's time you can fill with as little effort as possible. maybe some procedurally generated content? maybe some large, sparse expanses?

FAQ:

Q: is yume nikki an "open world game"?
A: yes

Q: what if I can't make a world that big?
A: you can make it very small, it's allowed

Q: is [game] an open world game?
A: let's just say yes

Q: may I submit an unfinished game?
A: all open world games are unfinished in some way, so yes

feel free to play fast and loose with the concept. now go! out! into the world!

24th of April is Glorious Trainwrecks' 15th anniversary, so let's have a game jam! We'll start two days before and go about a week after. Feel free to add games made before then as well. Participants may make games in Klik'n'Play, Knytt Stories, Construct, Clickteam Fusion, Game Maker, Ren'py, Bitsy, RPG Maker, Powerpoint, or anything that games can be made in. (Please let people know if your game requires anything special to play, though!)

SPECIAL CHALLENGES:
--Make a game in two hours
--Make a game that looks like it was made in two hours
--Make a game in a new-to-you engine
--Make a game in an older/more "basic" engine
--Make a game celebrating the LBGT+ community
--Make a game about your favorite game
--Make a game about your daily life
--Make a game about anything you want!
and most importantly of all...
--Have fun!!!

the legend of zelda: breath of the wild (2017)

"Open World" games are the current "hot" thing in video games right now. these games are vast, have massive budgets and take years to make. but I believe that they can be made within weeks, on a budget of $0.


far cry

the goal of the open-world jam is to make one of these games. what defines an open-world game? well it's very loosely defined. but here's some things
- large map with lots of points of interest
- back of the game box would describe it as "vast" or "a massive game world" or such
- a continuous space with no load times (YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS PART IF YOU DON'T WANT)
- lots of "collectables" and "items"

see how much of the player's time you can fill with as little effort as possible. maybe some procedurally generated content? maybe some large, sparse expanses?

FAQ:

Q: is yume nikki an "open world game"?
A: yes

Q: what if I can't make a world that big?
A: you can make it very small, it's allowed

Q: is [game] an open world game?
A: let's just say yes

Q: may I submit an unfinished game?
A: all open world games are unfinished in some way, so yes

feel free to play fast and loose with the concept. now go! out! into the world!
