Welcome to the Kennebec Pride Jam! A Maine-based game jam during Hallowell Pride where developers experiment with fun interactive experiences over a shared theme to be announced when the jam starts. Though you don't need to be a Mainer to submit, we have an in-person meetup and award ceremony (see bottom of the page). In order to vote on submissions or receive awards for your submission you must attend in person :)
The only requirements:
The theme is: BUBBLY!
| Diversifier | Description |
| Be Gay, Do Crime | Include an element of outlaws/lawlessness |
| Pure of Heart, Dumb of Ass | Add a good-aligned "bo" (herbo, thembo, himbo, etc.) to your game |
| None Pizza Left Beef | Feature a curious food item |
| Death Becomes Her | Utilize a game mechanic that is not death, but instead something worse. |
| Two Bros, Chillin' in a Hot Tub... | Multiplayer game that utilizes a strict distance apart rule. |
| But I’m a Cheerleader | Develop an ending that rejects obvious resolution in favor of something campy, rebellious, and/or liberating. |
Though not explicitly required we highly encourage developers to try to include one or more diversifiers listed above!
We align closely with Global Game Jam's Inclusiveness Policy. In short: No sexism, racism, discrimination or any kind of exclusion will be tolerated and we reserve the right to refuse and/or remove content based on our principles.
Art, Writing, and Music should be original.
We invite participants to a private event at Wrapped Up for the Best In Show award and five secret awards. Awards are physical and judging will be done in-person. We encourage those in Maine to attend and meet other amazing developers.
