Announcing the First Monthly Rosebud AI Game Jam

We love the passion that Rosebud users pour into AI game development and to celebrate our community, we're excited to announce our first Monthly Game Jam!

💰 Prize Pool: $500

📅 Submission Deadline: April 15th

🌙 Theme: "Sleep"

➡️ Join us on Discord to participate

The theme of our first game jam is inspired by the community stream where we all had a blast playing a text adventure game by abrie. Remember how we got stuck, and the solution was to just have the character take a nap?

We challenge you to explore the depths of sleep, dreams, and the ethereal boundary separating the awake from the asleep. Whether it's a journey through dreamscapes, an adventure in the world of nightmares, or an exploration of the concept of rest itself, let your creativity run wild!

And to add an exciting twist to this game jam, we're honored to announce that Kevin Lin, co-founder of Twitch, will join as a Guest Judge!

This is an exclusive opportunity for participants to have their creations evaluated by an industry leader who has shaped how we experience gaming and live content today.
