Announcing the Love/Violence Jam! - now open for submissions!

I’m happy to announce that I’m hosting my first-ever game jam, the Love/Violence Jam!

The Love/Violence jam is all about messy feelings and messy actions. Tell a story about love and violence, one as a metaphor for the other, one masquerading as the other, or some less-defined relationship between the two.

The jam will run for the month of June. It’s unranked, but I will make an effort to review submissions on IFDB. If you’ve submitted to one of the Neo-Interactive jams before, the rules are mostly modelled off of theirs, so you basically already know what you’re getting into.

As I mentioned before, this is my first time running a jam, so if there’s anything missing from the page that should be there, or any questions you have, please let me know!

Looking forward to this!! Thanks for organizing :blush:
I have an idea for a small Locus Jam game that I’m not sure I can finish in time; but it just happens to fit the love/violence/consumption/possession/liberation themes, so I might submit it to this jam instead!

Submitted!

It’s a code poem instead of a game, but it DOES compile in Inform, even though it’s crap to play.
