Timeline ideas for next BGMC?

How exciting! I’m game for whenever, but my schedule is a mess (revenge of college homework and whatnot) so I may or may not produce a solid game- I’m in a coding class as well, and the games I do for that are for a grade… so higher priority- just less fun.
Theme ideas:
Steampunk
RPG story based (because that is easy to do in a week 
)
edit 1: for less suggestions 
edit 2: for more game styles

My Idea is maybe we can combine the top 3 ideas if they are compatible?
how does that sound?
my theme to add is
Elemental
Also can we try and limit it to 1 theme suggestion per person?
(can you all edit your comments and only leave you top idea?)

Maybe, when we vote take a game style (fighter, platform etc) and add it to one of the environments (elemental, steampunk, space, etc) and then make the theme around that.
My finals are not until late July, so anytime before or after that works.

Hi, I’m kind of new to Blender, but I think it would be fun to be apart of Bgmc and work on my skills with the game engine. I don’t have a theme or anything right now but if I think of one I will post it

Hey guys,
I am happy to announce that I, in the name of NiftyLlamaGames will be sponsoring this BGMC with a 200$ price.
3 Years ago, @Oby1 @TimDrew and I joined the BGMC 23 for the first time as a team, making The Long Way Home.
Since then, the game has come a long way, and it’s pretty much the project that kickstarted my entire Game Dev Career up to this point.
Nifty Llama Games is slowly turning into an actual Game Studio, which is crazy to me!
But what helped us the most to get to this point is the community over here. It’s all the people that supported us while we worked on the game. All the people that stuck with us when we decided to make the switch to Unreal Engine, and all of the people that gave feedback, encouraged us and helped make all of this happen. (we tried keeping you up to date over here)
That’s why we decided we want to give back to the community, to you guys and sponsor this BGMC. To encourage you to try and make something awesome, go where you didn’t think you could go and have a great time making a game during this jam.
I will also be co-hosting this BGMC alongside @BluePrintRandom to help him out so that we can have a nicely organized and bigger jam. Perhaps we can make this the biggest BGMC yet? 
We still have to decide how the winners will be chosen and will keep you guys up to date on all the details regarding the jam, and we’ll also make a few more announcements before it starts to hopefully get more people involved.
I will also do my best to play all of the submissions and give a bit of feedback on each of your games. (Maybe I can Livestream this on my YouTube Channel
), but I’d also like to personally have a chat with the top 3 games about perhaps taking their games further (if they wish to do so).
That’s all from me now. Have a great day and happy blending!

Also, I’d like to suggest the theme “a wordless story” as a theme. Could be interesting

I think that would make the most sense, yes
yeah 1 week
Hey, thats actually a really amazing gesture and this community is really lucky to have so many generous people giving back with work, information, good energy and dedication. I might be way to slow to do anything worthwhile in a week time, but I will surely like to give it a try, will be a good chance to try and gather what little I have learnt and see if I can come up with something.
I also like the idea of a wordless story, visual storytelling.
PS: Best of luck for you guys on your game studio adventure.
