Synergy Games Jam 2026

Build with Synergy OS

A real-world signal.
Your next game mechanic.

Synergy OS provides a player signal about device energy, shared with permission. Your game decides how to respond.

How it fits together

Synergy OS provides the signal.
You design the experience.

  • Energy information from the player's device

    ThingsApp reads where the electricity powering the device comes from.

  • Synergy Status from ThingsApp

    The device gets a verified tier: Green, 1.5°C aligned, Not green or Not verified.

  • A permission-based connection

    The player approves Synergy Login (OAuth 2.0 + PKCE). You receive the tier, never their identity.

  • Your game's response

    You decide what the status changes, and what every player gets by default.

Ideas to build on

One signal.
Many possibilities.

These are design ideas; the right mechanic depends on your game.

  • Reward

    Add bonus XP or a score multiplier.

  • Progression

    Open an optional path through the experience.

  • Challenge

    Give players another goal to explore.

  • Recognition

    Offer a cosmetic, a badge or a title.

  • Access

    Unlock a clearly explained feature or round.

  • Community

    Design a shared goal around participation.

Design with care

Make it meaningful
for your players.

Explain what changes and why. Think about players who cannot choose their electricity source or use a supported device. Test the mechanic with real players and measure its effect.

Conceptual flow · not executable code
verified status → apply the game's chosen mechanic
status unavailable or declined → the game's default behaviour

For existing games

Add a new possibility.
Keep your game yours.

  1. Register your game

    Sign in to ClimateIn, open Creator Studio → Synergy Login and register a client.

    Open Creator Studio
  2. Connect with permission

    Send the player to Synergy Login. You receive a signed token with their tier — never their identity.

    See the OAuth flow
  3. Test the experience

    Check every tier, a declined permission and an unavailable status. Explain the outcome to players.

Make the benefit clear.

Keep ordinary account sign-in separate from the Synergy connection. Tell players what you request and what their status changes.

Use verified data.

A demo colour is an example, not a verified signal. Read the tier from the token and handle changes explicitly.
