I would definitely need more info; I tend to only participate when I have time and there's a really interesting theme.

Some general information about the jam would be nice, at least an overview.
As information is relayed to me - I will post it here, for sure. Just keep watch on the thread for updates... best advice that I have so far - but just keep in mind that there WILL be a game jam in January and, to the best of my knowledge, it will be a free entry sort of deal.

No news regarding theme, prizes, registration dates yet... but again, as details come to me, I will update as required!

But thanks for taking a general interest this early!
If the theme is good, I might jump on. :)
If I like the theme, or if there is not a theme I might try.

I would have more makerscore If I did things.

Alright, mild interest.
Since it's about three days to January, do you have any updates?
Specifically the theme.

Your event description matches the Global Game Jam where anyone can participate or register a site to host the event.
Soo....Is this still happening? Are we getting more information?

Will we have to wait until the next episode of dragonball z to find out? :(
The Global Game Jam is still happening. That's for sure.

If shyAwayGames's jam-site is not available, you can look for a site close to your location. Here is the page to run a site search.
Hey everyone! Yeah... Sorry about that. COMPLETELY HAD TO CALL OFF THE GAME JAM.

Some winner decided to break into my car 3 days before Christmas (where I had a 2 day drive to Illinois and a 2 day drive back to Texas) so all of the money I had planned for prizes (over $200, from yours truly) had to go towards a new car window and replacing everything that was stolen - isn't that grand?!

So let me formally apologize for not keeping on top of this to the community - and I will have to host another game jam for everyone at a later date.

For anyone interested in a game jam which is happening currently, there is the global game jam! Just check it out on Google, or I believe there was a link posted in this thread for the Global Game Jam!

Once again, my deepest apologies to everyone who had their heart set on this game jam. There was a lot of buzz going on about it - since we were also accepting entries from TCGs and Tabletop games in addition to Video Games.

Just can't have anything nice around here, I suppose. :(

Well, I found someone to do a last minute repair on the vehicle (literally a day before we departed the area) so it was a very, very close call and with the money I had left over, I bought my niece a gift for Christmas. :(

Wish I could've spent that money on the community, though - as I see a lot of good work that goes into the indie games published not just on this site, but itch.io and gamejolt as well!

Sweet mercy, that sucks. :( Sorry to hear that happened to you

Ah well. There'll be other community events and jams.
Yeah it's still crappy though. Like I felt like this was a really good opportunity to learn a lot from everyone's submissions and get to know more people and give back to the community... and then some random just, quite literally, shatters all hopes of it happening.
