Hello wanderers, hope you're all enjoying some summer weather wherever on Urth you are! Just a little community plug, I'm hosting a game jam over the summer on itch.io.

The returning Vaarn Summer Jam is a non-ranked game jam, where entrants are invited to contribute submissions relating to Vaults of Vaarn, and science-fantasy roleplaying games in general. 

Entries can be adventures, maps, artefacts, NPCs, art packs, or anything else you can dream up. I have a very loose content policy but please don't submit stuff that has no relation whatsoever to science-fantasy.  I would like all entries to be conceptually compatible with Vaults of Vaarn, even if they're not actually written for the setting or system. To see last year's submissions click here.

All Vaults of Vaarn material presented in the original three zines and the drafts of the Second Edition rulebook are covered by a Creative Commons 4.0 Attribution license, and you are free to use it however you want in your submissions to this jam or other projects. The artwork and adventure locations I produced for the Deluxe Edition are copyright to Games Omnivorous and can't be reused. 

The Jam will run until 30th September 2026.

Come join us on the Vaarn discord server to discuss your work in progress.
