Forums have been down but the jam has started! Check the site for all the details!

Had a busy weekend, finally back to answer questions. Nice cover art again! But wasn't the jam supposed to happen every 13 (or was it 11?) months, so each month gets a jam eventually? (I.e. next one would be january.) It looks like it was oscillating between december and november. And now it's alway...

ANOTHER ROUND! LUANTI GAME JAM 2024! Please check out jam.luanti.org for information about this years jam! This will be the central location for schedule, rules, and submission rating ! What are we doing? Between November 1st and 21st, make a Luanti game from scratch and submit it to the Luanti Con...

A replay mod is certainly possible, in fact I made a few prototypes a while ago, but never got around to finishing it. Its really just a matter of recording changes and undoing/redoing them. Maybe I'll finish the mod.

Which raises another point: what's the point of giving a theme if people can do whatever they want? If there were judges, they could determine how much the game fits the theme. If there are no judges, the majority of voters will ignore this fact and simply vote what they like the most. Which is unf...

The Light Orb is definitely Bit and you can't convince me otherwise :D

I have one question about the final rating: How many people have actually voted? That's the only thing the document doesn't say, apparently. I would also like to know how many people voted! Thank you for asking; I rushed to get results out and forgot to add that data! (this is on the spreadsheet no...

I've seen that there's a new game submission: https://content.minetest.net/packages/mirq/intervention/ Was the submission deadline also extended? I'm a little confused. No, that package had been submitted before the deadline but wasn't approved until minor compliance issues were fixed, even if it d...

2 day extension to the rating period! For both your and my convenience, in case holidays are difficult to work around :D

I've noticed only now that the vote is entirely community-driven. I find this a very *very* stupid move, as it lets an undefined mass of people choose who has to win. Considering there is also a money prize, I expect people with experience in game design/Minetest to have a saying on these games, no...

The 2023 Minetest GAME JAM working period has ENDED! HOWEVER! Everyone has a 1 hour grace period to get their submissions uploaded/finalized! ContentDB releases can be created any time within the grace period, and releases can be approved any time after that. Trivial game-breaking bug-fixes might b...

The jam has begun! Theme: " UNEXPECTED " You have 3 weeks to complete your games and submit them to ContentDB with the Jam / Game 2023 tag. The target version is 5.8.0 (unless the freeze extends more than 5 days). The scoring page will be live on the jam website before the working time end...

Freely-licensed media from third-parties or AI is allowed if documented properly Freely-licensed media from [...] AI That is a very bold claim and also entirely incorrect, and will be incorrect even if corrupt or clueless judges end up botching the currently ongoing court cases. I'm quite disgusted...

question about the rules, specifically these 2: - All gameplay and code must be original work completed within the development timeframe - Third-party or AI assets and libraries may be used if thoroughly documented and properly licensed Does this mean all code has to be original, or does the 2nd ru...

No ripples, how disappointing ;-) GreenXenith has shared videos with ripples, perhaps it's off by default The video shows ripples... (no settings implemented, everything on by default) Any plans to add this reflective water to an upcoming version of the official Minetest release? Extremely WIP. I h...

In 2021, the Minetest GAME JAM combined community and judge scores together. In 2022, the community scores were separate for a community winner, with judge scores for the top 3 placers. Now: What if the final scores are determined by community votes entirely? (This is how many jams work) Supplementa...

It looks like you've got another mesh in Blender there called "Beel"? It has the same object count so my first guess is you just have a duplicate mesh there.

Greetings everyone. Hello there! I'd like to begin by mentioning that I am VERY new here!
