If you didn’t win, please know it is not a reflection of the overall quality of your work. We say this every hackathon and it remains true – each judge had favorite games that didn’t make it to the winners circle. We strongly encourage you to look into our Developer Funds program, as well as our Featuring Program.

Congratulations to all the winners!

A Game Maker game is currently featured on Reddit!

Hey everyone, not trying to spam, just thought this was an exciting thing to share.

I am an Admin at Reddit and I wanted to share that we are currently featuring a GameMaker game across Reddit.

Its called Slingblade and you can play it directly on Reddit. You may see it appear in the left nav bar.

Anyways, check out the game, but I'd also be happy to chat about how you can deploy your own GM games to Reddit if that is something you'd be interested in. LMK if you have any questions and happy devving.

The current Reddit Developer Funds program is extended until July 31, 2026

The current iteration of the Reddit Developer Funds program was previously scheduled to end on June 30, 2026. To ensure developers have time to plan for the upcoming changes, we will be extending the current program through July 31, 2026.

Following this program, we will be transitioning to a new model that focuses on recurring monthly payments for developers based on engagement metrics. The goal of this change is to provide more consistent earnings, reward sustained growth, and help make Devvit a platform where developers can build lasting income and businesses.

We're working on the details of this next version and expect to share more information in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, we wanted to provide advance notice for developers who are currently working toward Developer Funds tiers, so that everyone has time to plan accordingly.

We look forward to sharing more details soon.
