The winners of js13kGames 2018 have been announced — you can jump straight to the results. But let’s also talk about some issues we had this year — due to both the quantity and high quality of the games you submitted.

We got overwhelmed by both the quantity and the quality of the games submitted this year and need to extend the time judges have to play and score your games.

As usual, participants this year voted for their favourite games made by their fellow contestants. It’s finally time to reveal the results of the Community Awards.

To make the site more interactive we’ve decided to add comments sections to the games’ pages — an experiment we hope to retain.

Here’s to another new feature this year: a queue of currently submitted entries. Simple, but extremely useful — especially in the last few days before the submission deadline.

Here’s for another novelty this year: a jobs page with openings in companies that have partnered with the js13kGames competition.

We are halfway through the competition, but there’s still more than two weeks until the deadline — and new people keep asking: “Where do I start?”. Here’s one of many possible answers.

We’ve got quite a few changes in this edition — an unfortunate one is that, from now on, there will be no more Social Specials. Here’s why.

Third time’s the charm! To confuse you even more after starting two blogs one after another (first on my server using Hexo, then on Medium), I decided to make your life even harder and create a dedicated publication.

It’s incredible how long it took us to introduce some basic functionalities, like this blog. Now it’s finally time for a dedicated newsletter.

The seventh annual js13kGames competition for web game developers has started today at 13:00 CEST, and the theme for this year is: offline.

From this year onward, only the top 100 contenders will receive the free competition t-shirt. Here’s why.

Our A-Frame category turns into a broader, WebXR category — giving you more power and options in creating your game for the competition.

We’ll be at eBay’s Berlin office on August 13th to have a launch party and hackathon!

We’re finally launching our blog — now also across Medium and other platforms.
