GMC Jam 57 Starts Soon!

The 57th GMC Jam takes place from October 29th to November 3rd, and the winner will get a free copy of our All Fonts Pack!

The GMC Jam is a competition where GameMaker users have 5 days to make a game matching a chosen theme. Allison and myself have entered dozens of times, won a few times and even hosted the jam ourselves.

It’s a great event with a lovely community, and even if you don’t win you’ll be able to hone your game dev skills and come away with a whole bunch of new friends.

What you need to know

• The jam takes place from October 29th at 12 UTC to November 3rd at 12 UTC.
• You need to be a member of the GameMaker Community forum and post your game in the jam’s games topic.
• The jam’s theme will be revealed at the jam start time.
• The full list of rules are in the discussion topic.

Chequered Ink and the GMC Jam

We’ve both entered, hosted and even won the jam numerous times. Some of our commercially released games even started life as GMC Jam entries, including Plunder Dungeons and Monoquous 2.

This time we’re also offering a prize for the person who wins the jam. You can get your hands on a free copy of our All Fonts Pack, which contains 1200 fonts for commercial use in your games and other projects.

Be sure to set a reminder on your calendar for the start of the jam, we hope to see you there!
