Eggplant Game Jams
Eggplant Game Jams
The Eggplant podcast community hosts a casual game jam on alternate months, you can find information about the current jam, and all previous jams on this page.
Themes
In keeping with A Year of UFO 50 the game jams are following suit and will be inspired by the games covered by the podcast.
Prior that, each month three themes were randomly selected from Eggplant podcast episode titles. An emoji vote on the #eggplant-gamejam channel of the community Discord server determined what theme will was chosen for the next jam.
