Vote in the Wild Homebrew Jam!

The submission period for the first ever Wild Homebrew Jam is now over!

Now, it’s time for everyone to vote on their favorite homebrew offerings. Visit the #jam-submissions channel, and react to submissions with the new +1 emote to vote for them! You can vote for as many submissions as you like, but please only use one account per person to vote for submissions.

As you’re voting for submissions, we heartily encourage you to read everyone’s homebrew. If you haven’t already, give its creator some feedback! Let them know what you liked, or disliked; how things could be improved, or how you’d like to see it expanded upon. Even if you don’t upvote a homebrew creation, feedback is good to receive, and might help their next creation be better!

You have until December 10th, 12 PM GMT to cast your votes! Once everyone’s voted, we’ll reveal the winners – and the winner of our “Developer’s Choice” award – in the next blog post.

Join the Wild Homebrew Jam!

This year, we’re doing something fun and new to celebrate our community, to break in our newly-revamped Wiki, and to encourage the creation of all kinds of new homebrew content for Reclaim the Wild: a Wild Homebrew Jam!

For those who don’t know what a “Jam” is, it’s a celebration of creation and content created by people. The Global Game Jam, for example, is one of the biggest game design events of the year, dedicated to the creation of games in less than 3 days. While we don’t expect anyone to work quite that quickly, you only have until the end of November to submit your new homebrew content for this event.

We’re looking for homebrew of any kind! It could be new gameplay options (like new Races, Feats, Techniques, or Spells); it could be new adventures (like modules and encounters); it could be whole new systems! We’re open to almost anything, but your homebrew content must be original, safe for work, and wholly made by you within the month of November!

The developers and moderators are even offering prizes for a select few high-quality homebrew submissions! Your homebrew content can get special recognition, be featured on the website, and even earn you a Nintendo eShop gift card!

So check out the rules below, and we hope to see you in our Discord, submitting new homebrew!!
