    (I can't edit your posts, CROS)

  • Here's a default post to spread around for the contest! It will change when the contest theme is announced.

    You should really modify it to fit the site and also to be in your own voice perhaps.

    Hey guys,

    Game Jolt are running a new contest from the 11th to the 19th this month. It's been way too long since their last contest in September 2011(!), so the news is exciting!

    There will be a theme announced at the start of the contest but until then - like always - they've released a teaser poster which suggests the theme, for your guessing pleasure:

    A new contest page has been thrown up where devs can "sign up to participate" in contests (Ludum Dare-esque) and the contest page pulls in tweets, live streams, and site activity from entered games (e.g. dev log / news posts, added screenshots, added files, etc). The focus is on collaborating together, sharing our creations, and having a Good Ol' Fashioned Fun Time™ in the process!

    Anyway, all the information about prizes, times/dates, rules, etc., is on the aforementioned new page: http://gamejolt.com/community/contests/

    \o
