Theme:
The theme for this game jam is “Hidden Recordings” Your mission is to explore the nature of lost footage within the universe of the Foundation. Whether it's a story of a dangerous SCP breaking containment, a researcher uncovering forbidden knowledge, or a new SCP being discovered, your game should delve into the unsettling and enigmatic nature of these anomalies and how the recording helps flesh out their story.

All entries will be paired with a mini movie series and recorded / edited into a mini episode that will be put onto a GBA Video Cartridge and the rom will be given to each person included in the jam. There is a possibility that physical carts will be made and sold but that is not set in stone as it may be difficult to do. If you are not ok with that please let me know on your submission page in the comments and your entry will not be included on the cartridge. (You will still receive the Gba rom, so no worries.)
