Visual Novel Jam: At Sea
Two themes. One jam. Infinite oceans.
About the Jam
Your story could take place on a storm-battered fishing boat, a luxury cruise hiding a mystery, a drifting lifeboat with dwindling supplies, or a strange island that wasn’t on the map.
The “sea” could be a real expanse of water or a metaphor for uncertainty, isolation, or change. You can fill it with shipwrecks, deep-sea creatures, endless horizons, foggy harbors, or even a world swallowed by a flood.
The public theme is:
At Sea
It can be calm, stormy, beautiful, terrifying, or all at once.
The Secret Theme is:
Your Favorite Song (Like your actual favorite song)
Community
We’ll have a jam forum or Discord channel where you can share progress, swap resources, post weird screenshots, and talk about how you’re approaching the theme. You’ll also be able to give and get feedback, and maybe even find people to collaborate with.
