Themed Horror Game Jam #12

7th of April - 1st of May

Are you just starting out with game development or are you already an experienced game developer? Do you want to create a horror game? Are you looking for a game jam to motivate you to finally finish something? Are you willing to follow a certain theme, in order to find inspiration and maybe try something else you wouldn't normally consider? Whether you plan to make a serious, dark horror masterpiece or a B-movie style game about typical horror movie protagonists going into spooky places where no sane man would ever dare to tread, this game jam is for you! Hopefully, at the end of the game jam you will have something playable you can be proud of!

*Theme and bonus challenges will be revealed near the start of the game jam.*

Here's the link to the game jam!

The Themed Horror Game Jam #12 has started and the Theme and Bonus Challenges have been revealed!

Theme: Searing Light

Bonus Challenges: Unlike the Theme, these are entirely optional. Feel free to do one, two, all of them or ignore them completely.

For this game jam, the optional challenges are the following three.

1 - Let There Be Light: There is a scene in the game where an area shrouded in darkness suddenly lights up.

2 - Stay In The Shadows: Brightly lit areas are dangerous and staying too long in them has some kind of negative effect. (for example: blurred vision, health drain, enemies spawn, neutral NPCs become hostile etc.)

3 - Shelter in the Darkness: Staying in dark areas has some benefit other than just making it harder for enemies to detect you (For example: regenerating health, increased attack damage, weakening enemies that wander into dark areas etc.)

The submission period has ended, the rating period just started. Feel free to drop by, play the submitted games and rate them to provide some feedback to the developers!
