I love 2D horror and I want to encourage and promote the creation of more indie games. I am hosting this Game Jam every month and have no, aiming to expand and improve each month and hopefully one day include prizes - For now though it's just about the love of 2D horror!
The theme for this month is "Undead". How you choose to include this as an important element of your game is up to you. Undead come in many forms such as zombies, ghosts, ghouls, skeletons, mummies or even vampires. Whatever you choose I just hope this theme will have you feeling creative and is something you can really get into and have fun with.
There will also be some optional challenges below to keep things interesting but otherwise go for it and most importantly, have fun! I also want to really emphasize how optional the challenges are, they are just for fun, please don't let them restrict you if you already have an idea you are excited about.
1. Use a futuristic setting for your story
2. Use 5 colors or less
3. Include a ring as an important item/story element
I am committing to doing a full playthrough of all submissions and these will be posted on my YouTube channel. If there is more submissions than I am expecting, I will play some during livestreams to make sure all get the attention they deserve. I like to play games very thoroughly, I will be clicking everything I can, reading everything I can and getting all endings. The only exception will be if someone does something crazy because of this commitment, I'm doing this in good faith. 😅
1. Games can be made with any engine/framework/codebase/assets that you have the legal rights to use.
2. Games can be submitted to other Game Jams.
3. Game must be in a 2D style but this could mean anything from a side-scroller like Terraria to something more top-down like Core Keeper or anything in-between.
4. Games may push the boundaries a bit but cannot be something that would be labelled as 18+ / adults only.
5. Games must not be worked on before the submission period begins but you can do planning and organizing software/plugins/resources, etc.
For showing off submissions, teaming up or just having a good chat, all are welcome: https://discord.gg/uZcNfBMerK
Lastly I just want to say a big thank you to everyone who chooses to participate and to please bare with me as I am still figuring things out but I will be doing everything I can to learn and improve for each month going forward. Suggestions and feedback are very welcome and greatly appreciated. 🙏
