Luduvo Game Jam: Unfinished
Hello everyone, and welcome to Luduvo’s first ever game jam!
Give yourself a pat on the back if you’re one of the lucky few to be able to participate in this one.
With the release of scripting and publishing for Luduvo Studio, we’re proud to announce the first game jam open to all alpha testers, hence the name Alpha Jam!
Theme
We figured that since Luduvo is still in development, the only fitting theme for this game jam is unfinished! Think under construction, work in progress, etc… How you interpret that creatively is entirely up to you!

Judging Guidelines
To be as transparent about how we’ll be judging submissions for this game jam, we’ve decided to add this section!
Our submissions team will spend a minimum of 7 minutes playing each game. There will be 10 winning games total, scored out of 25 points based on 5 categories (5 points each):
-
Theme Interpretation: How creatively did the game incorporate the unfinished theme?
-
Creativity: Does the game stand out from the crowd? Does it take risks or try something completely unique?
-
Innovation: Is the game something that is completely unique and “outside the box”?
-
Presentation: How well is the game actually constructed?
Note: In the event of a tie, the tie-breaker will be decided by whichever game is more popular in the community!
