This is a list of VN jams and jams favored by VN devs, or jams producing a significant amount of VNs.
Jams are categorized under the month when the most recent edition of the jam began. The current calendar year of jams is highlighted.
This page lists basic statistics about each iteration of a jam. For condensed statistics and leaderboards, see VN Jam statistics.
Statistics listed here are from itch pages during peak participation, shortly after jam closure or, for older jams, from itch jam info pages. Note that as people can remove their games from itch jams, later updates may not reflect numbers at the time of the jam, and that itch jam entry numbers may sometimes be off by 1 or 2 games (e.g. jam page says 10 games, but only 9 are visible).
Tips for interpreting "Participants/Entry"
Lower numbers means for only a few participants, a significant number of games are released. Higher numbers means there was a smaller number of releases compared to people participating. In general low values can be explained by:
- Smaller teams, and more solo-developed projects.
- The jam allowing several games per participant, or encouraging participation in multiple teams.
- The jam favors easier, smaller entries, and reduces the risk of incomplete projects.
Similarly, higher numbers could be explained by:
- Many incomplete projects that aren't released by the deadline.
- A popular jam that gets a lot of interest, but a reduced number of actual participation/releases.
- A more competitive or longer jam, encouraging larger teams.
