An ominous feeling hangs in the air like static. A foe greater than any you've faced before is on the way, and you're not sure how long you have left to prepare. Luckily you don't stand alone, and you've never lost before...


Countdown to Walpurgisnacht is a jam for Magical Girl-inspired media of any type, but is primarily for games inspired by Madoka Magica, and the start and end dates are taken from

Spoilers for Puella Magi Madoka Magica Homura Akemi's time loop, from waking up in the hospital until Walpurgisnacht

Projects for the jam can include TTRPGs, Video Games, or anything else that fits! The important part is to make something within the month-and-a-half timeframe. This jam isn't a competition and isn't judged, and is open to anyone willing to make a funky mahou shoujo thing!

This is the second year that Countdown to Walpurgisnacht has run, although the host, Dondougo, has been challenging himself to make a game within this time frame since 2022! The result from last year was Warded Wishes. He's excited to open this up to others and to see what he makes this year!
