Coming March 2026
The Bad Ideas Game Jam is an upcoming game jam organized by the YouTuber Jonny Razer. The jam is set to run over the course of a month with the goal of bringing people's bad game ideas to life. Individuals and teams will be given a specific theme and tasked with creating a game that fits the theme, along with a short-form video pitch.
Games will be rated on five key criteria:
-
Enjoyment – How fun and engaging the game is to play.
-
Creativity – How original and unique the concept is.
-
Artwork – The visual style and overall aesthetic of the game.
-
Audio – The quality and implementation of audio in the game.
-
Video Pitch – The effectiveness and appeal of the game's video pitch.
These games and videos are then compiled into a standalone game that brings all submissions together for everyone to view and play on Steam, provided the individual or team has consented to releasing a public GitHub repository of their game.
