NG Game Jam 8 and an impromptu Art Jam are a GO!
The GAME JAM theme is: Cabin in the Woods.
Yes, the theme is inspired by the (awesome) movie, BUT your game SHOULD NOT be about the movie.
Your goal this weekend is to make a game that centers around a cabin in the woods. Horror, comedy, fishing, WHATEVER YOU WANT. We let this idea marinate for a while and we think people could have a lot of fun with it.
We are calling this "Cabin Jam", so please include the Cabin Jam logo in your entry and link it to the Game Jam page to cross-pollinate. Luis made a logo for light backgrounds if you prefer that. The best game will snag $25 store credit per team member, max $100.
Tag your game "cabinjam" and post the URL in this thread. Simply paste the URL by itself on its own line and it will render out all pretty, like this:
The ART JAM theme is: The Missing Eye.
If you've been reading the news, you saw that a huge eyeball washed ashore in Florida. People are speculating over what creature it belongs to. A giant squid perhaps? Or maybe something else? This weekend, illustrate the creature with the big blue eyes, who happens to be missing one. The best one will receive $25 store credit.

HAPPY JAMMING EVERYONE! Use this thread to post anything you want about progress in either jam. It can be an orgy of creation.
