Round 2 Has Finished Thanks to all who joined us on stream last night to vote in Round 2 of our theme selection process!

We had a great time last Friday night running multiple polls across our Twitch Stream as we completed our first round of voting. It was a great success and we managed to get through 10(!) polls in the night, taking our total number of themes from 46 at the start of the night to 10 semi-finalists. Round 1 Voting Results There were some great tactics employed by various voters making use of channel points and bits to ensure favourite themes made it through to the next round.

So here are a few rules and regulations we are going to abide by, unless we decide not to. Rules Rules are defined as things we must adhere to in order to declare victory in our game jam attempt. If we fail to meet these conditions then we will have failed at jamming this game.

Themes, Polls, and Voting We will be conducting a series of polls on stream at over the coming weeks to determine the final theme for the Game Jam. There will be three rounds of polling, with the first two rounds containing multiple polls. Before polls commence we invite stream followers to submit theme ideas via chat on our Twitch channel, or via the form on our site. A theme can be broad, or specific, but should avoid being a description of a particular function or mechanic.
