The idea for the game is pretty simple, it's just a basic text game where you're alone and explore dark tunnels and encounter monsters.  My main goal is to try to tell a fun but scary original story in such a way that the player walks away from the game learning something meaningful. 

I'll use this thread as my unofficial devlog and would love to hear thoughts about the game so far to try to improve my submission. 

Core Elements I Need To Implement: 

-Player Death (right now nothing happens, game just continues)

-Small bug fixes on items and menus

-More items (100 items should be easy since I programmed the system to be modular and easy to update) 

-Survival balance (right now the game is too hard and too unbalanced against the player)

-meta-shop upgrades (the miles you walk increase your total points so your next play through you can start with better stats and equipment)

I'm a music composer currently looking to build out my portfolio using game jams. I feel like I can get pretty creative with this theme, so if you're looking for some free music, shoot me an email at the address on my itch profile.

Here is a link to an OST composing jam I just wrapped up. It's on the orchestral side of things but I'm always looking to branch out stylistically.

If you describe your game and its story, and maybe what kinds of moods/sounds you're looking for, I can put together a quick sketch or three for you to approve/disapprove. If you like what I send, I'll work to fill it out and get it ready for your game before the deadline.

Let’s turn this into more than just a deadline on a calendar. Let’s make it a chance to encourage each other, swap ideas, and maybe even spark some friendships that last beyond the jam. The number of participants does not define the quality of the games we will make or the fun we will have. What matters is how much we show up for one another.

Here’s to making some friends and creating some great games together.
