Otome Game Jam is back again!

Otome Jam & Josei Jam are returning this May! 💜

Join us from May 1st to June 30th for Otome Jam & Josei Jam, two visual novel-oriented game jams about making games for women.

Otome Jam gives you 2 months to make a romance game with a female lead (gender can be chooseable) and at least a partially male cast to date. Josei Jam gives you 2 months to make a game meant for women, regardless of romance or character genders.

General rules:

no specific themes for either - this year our banner was community-voted to be cyberpunk themed, but you can make an entry with any kind of aesthetics and themeing!

18+ content allowed

previously started games and brand new games are okay, but games finished before the jams start aren't allowed

visual novels and hybrid games allowed

These two jams are sister jams and run concurrently. New developers are welcome! We have a guide for new developers with lots of resources for making games.

Check out the itch.io pages above for more info.

Cupid Parasite 5th Anniversary - School Uniforms Style -

Ace Attorney Deaths: They say the defendant bludgeoned the victim with a convenient flat object. The circumstances themselves aren't impossible. But the information about the motive is coming from a parrot on the witness stand. Danganronpa Deaths: I thought we were all friends here but it seems SOMEONE couldn't resist killing someone and then dramatically revealing the body in some crazy, dramatic fashion. No thanks to whoever probably tampered with the crime scene to make it more interesting. Zero Escape Deaths: It's all normal murder. The weird part is that the victim came back to life as a clone, or everyone's killing each other, or there's cross-timeline transportation and the destruction of humanity involved. AI The Somnium Files Deaths: Who is the killer, and why would they keep doing THAT to the corpses? And can people stop dying for five minutes, we're only one route in and I don't know what's going on! Buried Stars Deaths: The murders are all kinda normal but we're a small cast and we're not solving this ourselves. Time to call in the big guns... the toxic Twitter feed. Process of Elimination/Tantei Bokumetsu Deaths: You take your eyes off this group for five minutes and they've somehow Rube Goldberged each other into the cruelest and most unusual way a person can possibly die, all without anyone noticing. Gnosia Deaths: The two options are "vanished into thin air" and "chucked in the freezer", and the second one's democratically sanctioned. But there's a secret third option, which is "thrown out the airlock for misgendering someone", and a secret fourth which is "slime". Your Turn to Die Deaths: It's not the murders that are cruel, it's the player's participation in the murders. Ghost Trick Phantom Detective Deaths: The first step of trying to keep someone from dying is watching them die and going, "THAT'S how you died?!" before rolling up your sleeves and fixing the situation. Paranormasight Deaths: In any other game, deducing how someone drowned in the middle of a field while bone dry would be the subject of a huge Ace Attorney style courtroom segment. In this game it's just "probably this one specific curse stone", and the hard part is finding out what criteria they fulfilled on a technicality to activate it.

this is gonna kill me

I can't remember if I've posted this but it's been weighing on my mind for the past few years

Top tier fail girl extremely relatable my favorite idiot sandwich with a maximum of 5 brain cells at any one moment the one the only Katarina Claes

Ladies and gentlemen...

She.

if the successor to the nintendo switch starts selling games for 70+ dollars regularly i'm going to throw up

Still genuinely baffles me every time I remember that the average person isn’t in some form of pain all the time.

Like..not even a tiny bit???

It’s actually crazy to me every time I remember that most people actually don’t experience pain outside of injuries.

game i'm working on is just "this dating sim crashed and glitchedand everyone got turned into glitch creatures except for this one background character and some suspicious guy she found, now it's up to them to turn this horror game back into a dating sim."

except as u go on it becomes "none of the love interests enjoy being forced into their roles but they all feel too much social pressure to actually stop or bring it up with the others"

ooooooh that sounds cool!

it seems like a concept that would lead into a lot of interesting discussions around the characters, especially regarding different tropes and character archetypes that they're expected to conform to!

dating simulator - and here I mean a tokimeki throwback simulator-ass dating simulator - built around "trying to maintain a tumblr presence in 2013"
