Game Off is GitHub's annual month-long game jam (hackathon for building games), and this year the theme is LEAPS AND BOUNDS.

The announcement says developers are welcome to interpret the theme and include a few ideas to kickstart creativity:

  • Make your character evolve to overcome challenges
  • Add obstacles to test your hero’s ability to leap into action
  • Deduct points for anything going out of bounds
  • Duck, dip, dive, and dodge an enemy that’s changing or moving rapidly
  • Take place in the year 2020, the next leap year

The challenge is to create a game loosely-based or inspired by that theme using whatever game engines, libraries or languages you prefer before December 1st, 13:37 PT.
