Oh, didn't realize Epic hired you as the lead judge for the MegaJam, bro. Since you're so smart, go apply for their moderation team instead of crying in the comments. Having a Steam page for a long-term concept doesn't mean this specific build wasn't made from scratch for the jam - read the rules before playing internet cop. Now get back to fixing your own entry, clearly you need the time.

We’re building this game from scratch for the jam, bro. Creating an MMO means creating an entire world; every location is essentially its own mini-game. In effect, if you’re making something like a GTA-style game, you’re crafting hundreds or even thousands of mini-games all rolled into one. We’re building this from a blank slate—we’ve already put several hours into it. For the demo, we’re using a brand-new location - not the one that will serve as the main setting in the final build (which doesn’t even exist yet). Thanks for your interest. If you represent an organization that happens to be a "hater" of our game, please introduce yourselves - we’ll add you to the "wall of fame" in one of our other mini-games, where our players can hunt you down 24/7 in hundreds of different ways just by playing!))) We might be a bit "wild," but that doesn’t mean we aren’t following the contest rules.

ELYSIUM is not available in Steam for download or purchase yet https://www.vgdb.co/games/elysium-4 it is written everywhere that game ELYSIUM price in Egypt (EGP) | Games Flex will be coming soon (next year 2027 planned). Screenshot Attached below. Having a game store page on Steam - or anywhere else, for that matter, even in outer space, on the Moon, or on Mars - does not mean that development has begun. 

Are you another AI hater who’s participating in an AI jam? We’ve been developing AI technologies for many years. It’s quite curious that you’d accuse an AI company of using AI, all while using AI yourself (your personal PC) — lol;)))))) (ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING). That’s the same thing as criticizing technology while using a calculator and living in a cave with no plumbing or sewage system (which is exactly what you’re doing). Oh, and by the way—do you still think it was an AI that wrote the reply to you?

Also working on Windows 11 (tested). Soon available on Android and IOS, etc.

Hello @sadus91,

Thank you for your vigilance regarding the contest rules. However, the assumption that the game was developed prior to the jam is factually incorrect.

The July 4, 2026 "Published" date shown on our itch.io page reflects when the project page itself was initially created, not when the game's actual code and development for this contest began. Platforms like itch.io, Steam, and EGS act as digital storefronts. Creating a placeholder or pre-release page is standard practice and does not mean the game was released or that active programming had started. A project in a pre-release state is still in development.

Our game is built using Unreal Engine, and the timing of when we began programming strictly aligns with the Epic MegaJam contest timeframe.

In software development, the single source of truth for a project's timeline is the source code repository. Our version control commit history definitively proves that the development of this game occurred within the permitted contest window.

We are fully prepared to prove our adherence to the rules. If anyone from the Epic AI MegaJam crew is reading this, please send us an email. We will gladly provide you with official access to our repository so you can independently verify the facts and commit dates.

We appreciate the community's dedication to fair play and look forward to the judges' review.
