The Summer Games Jam is a weekly game jam. Each jam has a theme and a closing time. You build a game in a week, upload it in Studio, and your entry shows on the jam’s page on summer.games. The current jam, its theme, closing time and rules are on summer.games/events.

1

Open the upload with the jam picked

Click Submit your game on summerengine.com/jam, or open summerengine.com/studio/upload?event=<jam>. The link picks the jam for you. You can also open Publish a game and choose the jam under Enter a jam (optional).
2

Name your game and pick its targets

The form shows the theme and when entries close. Choose Web to give your entry a Play button in the browser. Click Save and continue.
3

Upload your build

On the next steps, upload a web export under Play in the browser (a .zip with index.html at its root). Add your art and text like any store page. See Publish your game.
By submitting you agree to the Summer Games Jam rules and the Summer Games Terms.

Your entry

  • Your entry is your game. Its title, art and builds on the jam page update as you change them in Studio.
  • Every step of your game’s page shows You’re in the jam, with a link to the jam page.
  • Until a web export is ready, your entry shows on the jam page without a Play button.
  • Your game’s Full dashboard has a Game jam section: enter a jam later, or Withdraw.
A jam entry is not a review. To list the game on Summer Games itself, submit the store page for review as usual.

With your agent

Ask your agent to “enter my game in the jam”. Through the Summer Engine MCP it lists the open jams with summer_store_jams and enters with summer_store_enter_jam, or picks the jam when it creates the store game. In Studio, the assistant picks the jam on Publish a game for you. See Use the agent.
