💛 A Note to Everyone Who Submitted
There were a lot of really good games that didn’t make the winners list. That’s one of the hardest parts of judging and ranking: the cutoff happens fast, and many entries could easily have landed in the top group on a different day or with a different scoring mix.
If you built something for this jam: thank you. You made the community better and pushed the idea of “AI NPCs” in surprising directions.
🚀 Next Up: Player2 AI RPG Jam
If you had fun building (or you’ve been waiting for the right theme), the next jam is live:

Bring your party systems, narrative experiments, combat prototypes, procedural quests, companion NPCs—whatever “AI RPG” means to you. We’re excited to see what you ship.
Play the Entries + Leave Some Love
If you haven’t yet, take a moment to browse the submissions and leave a comment on a few games. A short note goes a long way for jam creators.
Thanks again for making Player2 AI NPC Jam #4 such a blast. See you in the next one. 🎮✨
We have decided that you can continue to update your game/mod without limitation as long as you submitted your game before the deadline of this jam.
The reason is that the best games/mods on our platform are actually continuously updated (check AI Influence, for example), so there is no reason not to allow updates for jam-created games as well.
But remember, judges will play your game once, and we can't tell when they will play it. Although player metrics will be included throughout the 2-week periods.
