am i eligible to participate?
yes, if you're 18 years old or younger!
how are the hours tracked? what counts?
hours will be tracked using hackatime!
you can also report additional hours spent creating the assets for your game, such as art or audio. you need to substantiate these hours with screenshots and explanations.
what's required of the game?
your game must export to the web and have at least 5 minutes of gameplay.
your code must be open-source.
you should follow the prompts given on the wheel. but game development is difficult — if your game turns out different from the prompt, you will not be disqualified!
how long will roulette run for?
roulette will run for 4 rounds — each round lasting seven days.
the first round begins in the afternoon 8 august (pst).
the last round ends on 5 september.
can i double-dip with other hack club events?
double-dipping is not allowed for roulette — sorry!
can i work in a team?
roulette is meant to be a singleplayer challenge, at least for now.
what if my wheel spins to something that's too difficult or impossible?
you can earn respin tokens!
at the start of each round, you also have the option to disable up to a third of the options on the wheel, for genres that you are not interested or comfortable with.
