This jam is now over. It ran from 2023-09-17 21:00:00 to 2024-09-07 22:00:00. View 22 entries

The Lost Bay is a suburban gothic tabletop RPG set in the 199X.  In it you play as a young person touched by the Weird, an ancient force that gives you supernatural powers. You roam the Lost Bay with your gang, its malls, arcade games shops, skateparks and beaches, and fight the Horror that has awakened. 


WHAT?

You create the Urban Legends of The Lost Bay!

Participants are invited to contribute with submissions of in-game zines featuring poems, narrative fiction, drawings, collages, digital art, anything that evokes the Urban Legends of the Lost Bay.  VHS ghosts, cursed skate parks, doomed video games, serial-killers, mud abominations, evil Saints, you create the Urban Legends of the Lost Bay! By in-game zines we intend zines that could be found in the game world itself. They're not classical game extensions/modules, but artifacts that could be found in the game world itself!

This jam is hosted by Iko, designer and publisher at The Lost Bay Studio.

This is a never ending jam. It's a great way to start exploring the Lost Bay, creating content inspired by it, and meeting fellow Bayfolks. Come and check out the community on our server discord https://discord.com/invite/37XBQVr7eP

THE LOST BAY?

The Lost Bay is a game and a fictional suburb set in alternate 90s. Where and how the Bay is, is totally up to you. But you can also stick to the setting implied by the game book if you prefer. Here's a quick description of the main Districts of the Lost Bay (file last updated August 19 2023).
