Hello! I stumbled upon the jam accidentally and I think it's wonderful that a space to uplift both cis and trans women and non-binary people in the gaming community exists! Keep up the good work!
I have a question: as a TTRPG Game Designer, I would participate with a physical game. Are they allowed in this jam?
Thank you in advance for your response!
I belive that you can participate.
participants create a digital or analog game based on a theme revealed on the first day
On the About Us page.
I'll try to phrase it better because it's obvious there's some sort of linguistic barrier here. Yes, the physical games (TTRPGs, gamebooks and the likes) are DIGITALLY distributed on itch.io. There are currently 59,393 listed as I type this comment, they have a dedicated page /physical-games .
No worries though, I realized the different time zones are incompatible with my participation in the jam. Though I didn't quite get my question across to you, I appreciate you taking the time to reply. Have a good jam.
Hi! Organizer here. Yes, you can submit a physical game as long as you upload pictures, rules of the game, etc. Unfortunately, this year, the registrations are closed, but if you want, you can participate next year and go wild with a cool physical game ;) Be attentive to the Women Game Jam social media to register for the event on time (website: https://www.womengamejam.org/, IG: womengamejam, LinkedIn: womengamejam). Each year, more countries host the event, so check if you can join a local venue and participate physically. We hope to see you next year! :3
