This time the swag packages were a lot bigger and more difficult to pack as we tried to ship as many gadgets from past years as we could, but they are all finally out. Now that the t-shirts were shipped, we’re waiting for your selfies!

We have not one, not two, but three different t-shirt related goodies for you this year: from the unique full-print sport t-shirt of the js13kGames 2024 winners, through all prior original designs, to a brand-new retro design in our shop.

Last year João Lopes turned the music from js13kGames 2023 entries into an album — and it became a popular community project that we intend to continue. It’s time to do it again for 2024.

We announced the winners on October 5th, while ranking for our Decentralized challenges came out on on Monday. It’s the time to take a closer look into the specific criteria the games were ranked on.

This year the Decentralized category had four different, unique challenges: OP Guild, Avalanche, Thirdweb, and Arcadia — let’s see their results.

Behold, the winners of the 13th annual js13kGames competition are here! From 187 entries submitted this year, each packed into a 13KB zip, you’ve chosen the absolute best.

We’ve received 187 new, tiny, size-constrained games this year. Thank you and congratulations to every single one of you who made it! Now it’s time to vote and pick the winners of our 13th anniversary edition.

We’re incredibly happy to introduce a brand new multi-step submit flow for js13kGames.

The thirteenth edition of the online js13kGames competition starts… NOW! Build a thematic web game within the next month and fit it into a 13 kilobyte zip package to win lots of cool prizes, eternal fame, and respect!

This year’s Kick-off Meetup will be different to what we usually had in the past: I’ll join Michelle Duke on GitHub’s Twitch channel!

This year’s Decentralized category offers four different challenges presented in a way you can easily participate in all of them at once.

Thanks to the Meta Quest Japan team we now have a brand new Meta Quest 3 device as the main prize in the WebXR category of js13kGames 2024.

One of the ways to celebrate 13 years of js13kGames is to offer you all the swag we have left from previous years, like floppy disks, VR cardboards, CDs, magnets, pens, keychains, and more.

We started creating games to promote js13kGames with Triskaidekaphobia in 2014. In 2021, we celebrated our tenth anniversary with Triska Reloaded, and now it’s time to mark the thirteenth edition with the Badlucky level in Flood Escape.

Another year, another countdown. This time, though, it’s for the thirteenth edition of js13kGames — our yearly online competition for web game developers. We’ll be celebrating that milestone in the next two months up until the start on August 13th.

There will be a dedicated js13kGames challenge in the upcoming Gamedev.js Jam 2024 that starts April 13th. Join the fun and win one of thirteen unique Badlucky t-shirts!

Our js13kGames 2023 swag packages reached even the furthest parts of the globe already. Now it’s time to add 2023’s design to the shop, and toss in a brand new bonus: Badlucky!

Not one, not two, but three FireDEV podcast episodes were published almost one after another, including interviews with Andrzej Mazur, Rémi Vansteelandt, and Ewa Mazur.
