Judging Criteria

  • Creativity
    We want to see games that truly blow our minds by doing something or using something in ways no one has ever thought to do!
  • Functionality
    The more features and extensive your game is, the better, and bonus points if any of it actually works too!
  • Learning
    Game Jams are about learning as much as they are creating awesome hacks. If your game shows that your team learnt more than anyone else, that puts you in a great position!
  • Completeness
    How finalised is your game?
