# _ **WELCOME TO THE FIRST EVER CODE STARS!** _

This is an unofficial game jam made by me, @RizeUpDev! 15 players are nominated for each jam! I nominate @randomuser, @danger_kitty, @NeverStopTheCoder, @Spike, @Unique, @Luke, @_jupiter, @CopySprite, @OrigamiArtist and @redSprite. The rest will join from this poll ⬇

_Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/code-stars-a-game-jam/43791/1))_

And for judging, only I’m going to judge!

I know that this question will be asked, but I assure you, this will not affect your game jam games as I have planned to start at May 25th (My finals will finish). Just answer the poll now!

Rules!

1. Games must be made in MakeCode Arcade
2. There should be no violence in the games
3. Your game ideas should be made originally for this game jam
4. Remixes of existing games like Minecraft, Stardew Valley, or Rocket League is allowed, just not remixes of forum games like Magnate, Greenwood War, or Conquest of Duat.

Prizes!

1. 6th place or below get hounerable mentions which they can add into their bio
2. 5th or 4th place get ‘wowzer’ mentions
3. 3rd and 2nd get certificates
4. 1st place gets a medal and is declared as _A Coder_. They also join the other _Coders_ in the _Hall of Coders_

Any queries? Please don’t hesitate to ask!

Regards, RizeUpDev

I’m happy that I was noticed and nominated for a competition but I don’t think I’ll have time to participate.

You can ask me again when this starts to check if I have time.

1. (sorry for the ping) `@CopySprite`, `@Luke`, `@Unique`, `@danger_kitty`, and `@randomuser` are indescribably good coders and I have 0.001% chance of getting even 5th place with their skill.
2. I’m the newest to MakeCode there and joined \< 2026 (after)
3. I have exams until the 26th so… Yeah..  
Thank you for thinking that Im worthy enough (not) to compete against these incredible coders but I don’t know if I might succeed. Im still accepting the offer.

Thank you so much Origami! 😊  
But really, as much as some forum users have more experience, you really win a game jam with great ideas and the dedication to finish it.  
And the time to compete… which I unfortunately do not have, but good luck to everyone else participating!
