Definitely Scream! Tbh I was feeling like the 2nd year running was going to depend entirely on the success of the 1st. Imo year 1 went AMAZING for a 1st time jam of its kind, and although entries were small in quantity, the quality of them was astounding for a 1month long jam.
So enter 2019, I was about 75-80% sure we'd run the jam again...but I just got so many enthusiastic people asking about it before hand, I didn't have the heart to not continue the tradition.
Are you partaking? =)
I'm glad you kept a regular jam running! Support for jams fluctuates all the time and there can be so many factors influencing participation - it sounds like you've built a community of niche creators which is awesome :)
I'm running my own jam during the timeframe of this one but uhh I'll be VERY interested in the outcome - hope you get some great submissions!
I'm running SCREAM JAM which is a horror-themed jam currently running - it's got a very different vibe to this one haha, although a few of our jammers have diverse/queer interpretations of horror in their games! Just played the Bara Jam 2018 submissions and I agree that the calibre of games seems to usually be really polished and chock full of content. My fav was Blood and Lust - because of, yknow, gladiators, and also the fact that the plot had a surprising depth and progression to it - really seemed like the creator was passionate about Ancient Rome too.
Best of luck with the jam and look forward to seeing the outcome!
