FUTURE IMPROVEMENT — Good idea, not now. Tracked for future consideration.

Summary

Sponsor a themed game jam using randsum as the official digital toolkit. The theme forces participants beyond basic 1d20. Feature top entries on the docs site as "Community Showcases." Best entries become new game packages. Budget: minimal. Participants become evangelists.

Details

The theme forces participants beyond basic 1d20 — exploding dice, caps, rerolls, custom sides. Feature top entries on the docs site as "Community Showcases."

Best entries become new game packages (with contributor attribution). Participants become evangelists.

Budget: minimal — itch.io game jam hosting is free; optional cash prizes ($50–$200 range) would increase participation.

Prerequisites:

  • Playground shipped (participants need to share/showcase notation)
  • At least 3–4 game packages as reference implementations
  • Docs site in good shape to feature community showcases
