Introducing the GMTK Patreon Jam!
🕑 Added 2024-09-10 07:28:24 +0000 UTCHello Patrons
Every year, I host the GMTK Game Jam - which always attracts thousands and thousands of game designers.
But... perhaps you'd like something a little more low key?
Well you're in luck! In December I'm hosting a tiny winter version of the jam that's exclusively for GMTK Patreon supporters. And you can join the jam now.
It's a little different from the main jam. It's longer (though, just use as much of the allotted time as you like - perhaps working in the evenings after work, or just use one weekend). The games aren't rated or ranked. And the community is picking the theme - you can make your suggestion here.
Oh! And, one more thing - I plan to take part! I've promised to never enter the main GMTK Game Jam to keep things fair, but I have no qualms about getting involved with this one. I'll be done with Mind Over Magnet so will be excited to make something new!
A final note - much of the jam will be communicated through the GMTK Discord so make sure you're in there - there's a dedicated channel for this jam. I'll make a post on Patreon just before the jam begins to remind you - but if you want to see the theme, chat with other jammers, and so on, you'll need to be on the Discord.
Hope to see you there!
Back soon with another video - this one's gonna be a big one.

Good point! Changed it to end on the 16th
Harry Petch
I'm in!
Kevin Vognar
Oh, yeah, I second this. That Sunday is important!
Marc von der Heiden
That's a great idea, I hope I find the time to participate. Just one suggestion: wouldn't it make sense to have a full week instead of six days? Depending on your time zone, some people might miss part of the weekend which is a real disadvantage for those that work full time during the week.

Congrats on finishing the game and sharing the journey with us! I really enjoyed the series and I'm looking forward to beating my head against the puzzles. The game looks super charming!

Sorry I didn't notice the FAG. I can see it's allowed do it.

Can I invite my friends even when they are not supporters?

(Just to clarify, before you ask - that's the Patreon logo made of jam)
