What is a TIGSource Compo?TIGSource competitions are short competitions based around a particular theme. The emphasis is on collaboration, sharing, and, most of all, the completion of projects. In other words, it's an exercise in making small, tight, enjoyable/interesting games that can be played from beginning to end. There are no prizes involved - the game itself is the prize!
What does the theme mean?Whatever wholesomeness means to you. It could be a religious/moral game, games you can play with your kids, a cute/sweet game, a game for positive social change, games that simply make you smile, or any other meaning of wholesome you can think of. Some examples could include;
Little Big Planet,
Library,
Nintendogs,
Morning Post,
Bible Adventures.
How do I enter?Create a thread for your project right here in the
Wholesome Compo forum and document the progress of your game in it.
When you finish your entry, please add it to the
"Finished Entries" thread that will appear partway through the competition. Completed entries must be submitted
before 1st November, midnight.
What are the rules?Entries should be started and ended within the time frame of the competition (feel free to put up your game threads and begin brainstorming earlier, though) and must be made for the competition (submitting the game to other jams/competitions running at the same time is okay, though). Collaborations are allowed and, in fact, are welcomed. You may submit more than one game (up to a maximum of three).
It's perfectly okay to reuse old code and pre-built engines and/or frameworks. It's only the game itself that needs to be done in the compo's timeframe.
Any format goes! But if your game doesn’t run on Windows it may limit its votes.
