Heads up, on May 1st we will be announcing a theme to launch a new Construct 2 Game Jam. Developers will have until June 15th to make and upload games with the given theme!
If you aren't familiar with Construct 2, it is game making software for Windows that allows you to create games without prior programming experience, then deploy them to the web as HTML5, or to Wii U, iOS, Android, Windows, Mac and more!
Last year we hosted the Construct 2 Touch Jam here on NG.
This year there will be no touch requirements but we'll have a theme that should result in some really thoughtful and creative games, especially in terms of story and/or setting.
Be sure to check in on May 1st for the announcement of the theme! There will be prizes:
1st - Business Licenses + $400 cash
2nd - Business Licenses + $300 cash
3rd - Business Licenses + $200 cash
4-9th - Personal Edition Licenses
15 Runner-Ups: $25 USD Amazon Vouchers from Scirra
If you've never made a game before, try some Construct 2 Tutorials and maybe you'll find yourself jamming on May 1st!
Also, we have a big Power of Three event coming this summer, where developers, artists and musicians will team up to make games. This is a good way to ramp up your skills and meet some collaborators on NG in case you want to join in this summer!
Today happens to be Throwback Thursday so here are some classics from this week in NG's past.
