This game jam invites you to delve into the realm of Halloween and explore the captivating concept of breaking the fourth wall in game development.

I am IntStories. I'm a game developer that has made a few, has helped and will keep helping others programm Visual Novels. My goal is to provide a game that wants to tell a story and help share that story to others all around the world.

For this Jam, your challenge is to develop a game that incorporates breaking the 4th wall in some way. This is a must! Additionally, the game must fall under the horror genre or have a Halloween theme.

What is "breaking the 4th wall", you may ask. Well, it's when a character in a story acknowledges or interacts with the audience.

An example for this is the famous game Doki Doki Literature Club (DDLC), when Monika breaks the 4th wall by directly talking to the player and even manipulating the game files.
