The gaming world is a dynamic space, constantly evolving and adapting to new trends and technologies. To celebrate this ever-changing landscape, OP Games and the Web3 Game Guild (W3GG) initiated the OP Games and W3GG Summer Game Jam.
This collaborative effort aimed to harness the creativity of game developers, encouraging them to explore the exciting possibilities of Web3 gaming. And the response to this endeavor has been nothing short of incredible, leading to a significant announcement: the submission deadline has been extended to September 20th, 2023.
A Generous Prize Pool
One of the standout features of the OP Games and W3GG Summer Game Jam has been the remarkable prize pool on offer. With a total value of 2000 USD, this competition has attracted attention from both novice and seasoned game developers. This impressive sum is made possible through the sponsorship of NEAR blockchain and Human Guild, with each contributing 1000 USD to the prize pool.
The enticing prize pool serves as a testament to the belief of NEAR blockchain and Human Guild in the potential of Web3 gaming. It is an acknowledgment of the hard work and dedication that game developers put into their craft. This financial incentive adds an extra layer of excitement to the game jam, inspiring participants to push the boundaries of creativity.
“Color Changes Everything”
In this game jam, developers are presented with a unique and intriguing challenge. The submission category, titled “Color Changes Everything,” invites participants to explore the concept in any way they see fit. The interpretation of this category is intentionally left open-ended, allowing developers to let their imaginations run wild.
The freedom to explore and interpret this category creatively has been a significant draw for many participants. It has led to a diverse range of submissions, each offering a fresh perspective on how color can impact gameplay, storytelling, and player experience.
Embracing Existing Submissions
OP Games and W3GG recognize the value of existing game submissions. This inclusivity means that developers who have already been working on their games are welcome to participate, provided their projects align with the “Color Changes Everything” category. This approach ensures that the game jam is accessible to a wide range of developers, fostering an environment of innovation and collaboration.
