What is a Game Jam?

A Game Jam is when several developers come together over a short period to create a game project. Generally, game jams have restrictions or specific direction (themes) to help guide the design and inspire the developers.

Furry Game Jam will last nine days and aims to encourage the creation of more games within the furry community.

What makes this a mini Jam?

Great question! We are still figuring that out :)
But Furry Game Jam is typically a 9-day ranked game jam, but to fill in the gaps between our two main game jams per year, mini jams will be hosted every three or so months. with the goal of making smaller games, with smaller scopes, and on a tighter timeframe.

Theme

SILENT

You may interpret this theme however you would like, but here are a few examples of how Silent may be understood:

- Silent characters or creatures that must express themselves through other means
- A game about absence, emptiness, or what's left unsaid
- Silent as a mechanic - stealth, hiding, or moving undetected
- Internal struggles, introspection, or solitude
- The contrast between noise and quietness

Note: Silence doesn't necessarily mean the absence of music or sound; if anything, they work together to amplify each other.

Setup

All communications will be done via the FurryGameJam Discord server, and a space will be provided to join or create a team. You can also participate solo, but teaming up is highly recommended!

Here, you can find resources to guide you through making a game, even if this is your first time
