Otome Jam 2024 jam page is finally up and along with it, we are continuing last year's Josei Jam!

Join now to be notified when it starts and go ahead and prepare yourself for the start OtoMay (and June)! As always please be sure to read the rules as we have made some updates again and this time provided more international support by adding translations (currently French, with German coming up) for Otome Jam! Even if your game is not in English, you can submit it to both jams, but as a disclaimer, the two hosts mainly speak English. If you would to submit a translation for either jam, feel free to contact us on Discord!

Likewise, we are still updating and getting some things ready, for any more questions our Discord server is available!

Taishō Romance Theater by SweetSome Studio

This is a dark, story-rich romance visual novel set in 1920s Taishō-era Japan, featuring a diverse cast of romance options. In a tale where love, fate, and the arcane intertwine, players follow Kotori Sakuma—an amnesiac actor, as his peaceful life unravels after a strange incident awakens unexplained powers within him. Amid the glittering stages of Tokyo and the shadows of unseen forces, a friend’s mysterious death draws him into long-buried secrets of magic, memory, and blood ties. As Kotori uncovers hidden truths and dangerous conspiracies, players must choose: return to the embrace of the bloodline, or pursue complete freedom.

Features BxB/G!

Two chronically lonely and emotionally constipated men work hard to become boy besties. A disillusioned high school literature teacher and an ambitious freelance painter find connection in each other's loneliness.

Features BxB!

And that wraps up the list of features we had prepared! Of course, we still have many more Otome & Josei Jam submissions that we haven't talked about, at least 40+ for Otome Jam and many only exclusive to Josei Jam!

Heya Jammers! We hope you had plenty of rest after #OtomeJam & #JoseiJam! With so many entries, we will do our best to retweet and reblog around on Twitter and Tumblr, but obviously keeping an overview of all new devs and projects is a lot for a duo. Feel free to comment, reblog and use the hashtags of this post and we'll like, reblog and follow you!

We also have a similar post on Twitter for those who would like more eyes on their project there: https://x.com/otomedev/status/1809622598147350793
