We will be submitting games with itch.io!

If you haven’t already, make an account at https://itch.io/register. Next, click the pink “Upload a game” button on the top right corner of the screen - you’ll need to upload your game before you can submit to the game jam.

Then, click “Create a new project” and enter the information required. You’ll want to give your name a title and a unique URL for us to be able to access it for voting. For “Classification” select “Games” and for the kind of project, select which option best applies to your file (we suggest “Downloadable” or “Unity”). Since you should only be submitting your project when you’re done, your release status should be “Released.”

For pricing, please select “No payments” or “$0 or donate” so that we can access your project. Next, upload your game files and select a genre that best fits the category of your game. The rest of the details of your project are completely up to your discretion. Finally, once you are satisfied with your game page, hit “Save & view page.”

Now that you have uploaded your game to itch.io, you are able to submit your work to the Gameathon! Go to our page at https://itch.io/jam/gameathon-2020. Submissions are open between Monday, October 12th at 3:00 pm PST and Sunday, October 18th at 6:00 pm PST, but you can join our jam at any time. Click the join jam button and then once you are ready to submit, click the “Submit your project” button which will appear in the same spot once you have joined the jam and submissions are open. From there, you will be able to select the game page that you created and submit your project. Be sure to enter the required fields after you select your page, and then you’ll be all set!
