Hello everyone!

Thank you all for playing, commenting, and rating the entries for the 2026 Bad Ideas Jam! The top 100 has now been compiled and the judges will be playing the games from the 100th position all the way to the 1st position in order to determine the top 50. You can watch the first stream of judging here: Ranking YOUR GAMES - Bad Ideas Game Jam 2026 This will take several streams and we don't have a specific time for when the judging will be completely finished so please be patient.

Remember, even if your game didn’t make the top 100, you should still be proud of yourself for submitting it. Game development is challenging, and completing any project is an accomplishment worth celebrating.

Sincerely,

Mary

99th, barely made it in

Didn't make it to the top 100, but I'm proud of the position I came in. Had a blast doing this, hope the jams become a more regular thing even if there's no collection tied to it.

idk no why but every game jam I do always gets me more one stars on submissions.

Amazing! I'm far higher than I probably should be, but it's been fun so far watching the stream. Hope you have fun while playing my game :D

Any update on the judges vote ?
