It's the 17th Stencyl Jam! It's an opportunity to make and play awesome new Stencyl games. Game developers of all experience levels are encouraged to give it a try. This Stencyl Jam will run from December 9th - December 18th and will start and end at Midnight EST.

Once again, we will be hosted by Game Jolt! Here's the official jam page.

Winners will receive a Stencyl Studio license and a Game Jolt t-shirt!

If you'd like to chat with others about the jam or Stencyl, be sure to join us in the Stencyl Discord Server!

Info/Rules

  • The jam will last 10 days (Dec 9 - 18), and you're free to work on your game as little or as much as you want to during that period.
  • A theme will be announced a day before the jam starts. Try to stick to the theme, because games will be judged on how closely they fit.
  • Pre-made assets may be used as long as they are publicly available for everyone else to use before the start of the jam.
  • Teams are allowed, but keep in mind that the quantity of prizes a winning team receives will not scale depending on the team size. This means one Stencyl Studio license and one t-shirt for each team.
  • Games must be made in Stencyl, of course.
  • Remember to have fun!

Judging / Prizes

Entries will be judged by a Game Jolt panel.

If your game is one of the three winners, you will receive:

  • A Stencyl Studio license. This allows you to publish games to Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS and Android and gives you access to the private customer forums.
  • Your choice of t-shirt from Game Jolt's Redbubble Store.

How to Enter

Upload your game to Game Jolt and put #StencylJam17 in the game's description. It should automatically show up under the jam's Games page.

#StencylJam17

We'll be keeping an eye on the #StencylJam17 hashtag from our Twitter and retweeting cool stuff!

FYI, the next LD is scheduled for the 9th. Would using an LD game in the stencyl jam be acceptable?

Yeah! You can even expand your LD submission for the Stencyl Jam, since it lasts 10 days.

Hey guys,

So, each of the three winners will be able to pick one of Game Jolt's many cool t-shirt designs from their Redbubble store as a prize. Thanks Game Jolt!

So early after the previous Jam.. not expected.. but excited.

Teams are allowed, but keep in mind that only one Stencyl Studio license can be provided to that team if their entry wins.

This means there is Stencyl subscription prize? The studio? The prize isn't mentioned here.
If I helped you at anytime, help me back build my twitter followers :)

It was mentioned under Judging. I modified the post to hopefully make it more clear.

A winning entry will receive a Stencyl Studio license and a Game Jolt t-shirt.
