As we were coming to the end, I've decided to expand the time of the jam by two weeks! 

So you now have until the 15th of April to get your submissions in! 

We've had some truly amazing games submitted so far so thank you to everyone who's submitted and to everyone still working on games! If you need any help in adapting the SRD or just want someone to bounce ideas and mechanics off, don't hesitate to hit me up!

Thank you for joining! I look forward to seeing what you make! 

Today is the launch day everyone! 

I hope you all enjoy making some fun Crafted in a Shell games and I can't wait to see what you all make! 

If you have any Crafted in a Shell questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

I can't wait to see what both of you come up with, I'm sure it's going to be absolutely amazing! 

I'd love to know what everyone is making for the jam! A few people have pitched some ideas to me and I'm so excited to see them become real! 

I'm planning on working on (At least) 3 projects for this jam:

• I'm going to re-write the SRD to include new formats and other fun updates
• I want to write a game inspired by the Odyssey, sail the sea and uncover the pantheon of gods and your connections to them
• I also want to write a game for both this and for Gothhoblin's Birthday TTRPG Jam and I've promised them Furbies

Thank you to everyone that has joined this jam! 

The first Crafted in a Shell Jam saw the creation of some truly amazing games and just showed the creativity of those who took part. I'm so excited to see what projects everyone will work on and what places everyone will find inspiration from!

If you have any questions about the system or anything else, please don't hesitate to reach out!

I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I hope you enjoy your second playthrough too! 

I'm glad it arrived so quickly! I hope you enjoy running your very own tea grotto! 

Hello all! 

If you want to partake but don't have someone to collaborate with, put a message in here and tell people about your vision for this jam! Maybe we can get some new friendships brewing!

Oh amazing! I can't wait to check it out!

Hello! I've uploaded a print friendly version, hopefully it's easier to read for you! 

I hope you enjoy it! 

It's no worries! I look forward to seeing what you make! 

Oh how odd! No worries though, I extended the jam until midday tomorrow (BST) so feel free to re-add it now!

Don't worry, I just extended it until 12pm BST tomorrow!

I look forward to reading it!

Ooh the dramatic speech idea is a really cool concept! The second one sounds fun too, I've been meddling with a few of the mechanics for mine too leading to some really fun concepts!

They sound really cool! I can't wait to play them!

Hello all! 

I was curious as to what everyone was thinking of creating?

I'm writing a group game where you play actors in a sitcom, if the tower falls, the show is cancelled. I wrote a similar game a while back so this will be a much needed update to it. I'm also wanting to write a game about stand-up comedy which I think could be fun!

Throughout this entire jam, I will be around for anyone who wants to bounce ideas off someone and help give advice to those who need it.

Pirouette isn't out yet I'm afraid as it's still being finished but you can watch it being played here if you wish! https://youtu.be/Hxe-aWC3wGk?si=uBg5XaA6IqYlDmdE

Hi! Both sound like great ideas!

Oh interesting! I can't wait to see what you make! 

I'm so excited to see what games we can make together!

I've moved the jam up a couple of weeks as I'm very excited to begin work on some fantastic performance based games!

No worries, if you can leave a rating and stuff like that, it goes a long way!

I've just added a few more for you!

I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who joined in with this jam, it's been an absolute pleasure reading through everyone's special interests and I can't wait to read through all the games properly!

Just a reminder that this is a game jam for TTRPGs and other tabletop gaming projects.

Any submissions that do not fit within that category will be disqualified and removed. I've already had to remove two.

There are plenty of other jams that you could submit to, this one just isn't the one!

Thank you! The art was done by Rossydoesdrawings.

Everything he does is phenomenal!

That's absolutely fine!

It's my pleasure!

You can post as many as you wish as long as they all fit the rules!

Welcome Kiwi! I look forward to seeing what you make! 

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Online influencers being targeted by the supernatural sounds amazing, it's what I love about this game, everyone comes up with such amazing plots!

I'd 100% recommend checking out The Magnus Archives if you enjoyed this, actually the influencers being targeted sounds like something that could fit comfortably in their side, not quite sequel show Magnus Protocol! 

thank you to everyone who has joined tis jam, I am so excite to see what you all come up with!

If you have any questions or need any help, please drop me a message!

I studied it for both my bachelors and my Masters but I've never got the chance to fully integrate an idea from it into my game making, I'm very excited to finally give that a go!

Well you are going to do great! If you need any help, don't hesitate to drop me a message!

Nice! Sharks are fun!

I had a feeling so with that username! Capaldi is my favourite, I'm rewatching his first seasons at the moment and I just love it!

A great idea! And I'm excited to see the dungeon you make!

My special interests are tea, Minoan Crete, and Doctor Who.

I've made a lot about tea in the oast so for this jam I'm thinking of making a solo game where you play as a Minoan in the Bronze Age, taking place in three stages: before, during, and after the Theran Eruption! 

Thank you for the suggestions, I'll add them as soon as I get home! 

It's my absolute pleasure! I look forward to what you come up with!
