❄️ Frostbite Jam: Winter Horror

Make a small winter horror game in 9 days. Snow, ice, a cold night, a lonely cabin or a frozen town where something is very wrong. Beginners are very welcome: small, short and scary beats big and unfinished.

🗓️ Jam: Friday 4 December, 20:00 CET to Sunday 13 December, 20:00 CET
🗳️ Voting: until Sunday 20 December, 20:00 CET
🏷️ Hashtag: #FrostbiteJam

🎯 Theme

Winter horror. A secret twist is announced when the jam starts. Using it is optional, but it earns respect in the comments.

🎁 Free asset kit (optional)

Every CubeForge pack has a free demo download on its page, free to use in your jam game and afterwards, commercial use included:

You don't have to use them. Any assets you have the rights to are fine.

🏆 Prizes

  • Top 3 overall: every team member gets all 4 full CubeForge packs (Horror Sound Effects, PSX Horror Textures, Voxel Winter & Christmas Pack, Magic & Spells SFX) as free download keys.
  • Best use of the free kit (host pick): the same prize.
  • Winners are featured in a CubeForge devlog and collection.

📜 Rules

  1. Make the game during the jam. Pre-made assets are fine: the free kit, your own, or anything you have the rights to.
  2. Solo or team, any engine, any platform. Browser builds get played and rated the most.
  3. Stick to the theme: winter horror.
  4. Mark mature content (gore, strong language) on your game page.
  5. If you use AI tools for assets or code, say so on your game page, as itch.io requires.
  6. Be kind in the comments. Rate the games, not the people.

🗳️ Voting

Everyone who submits a game can rate the other entries: Overall, Fun, Atmosphere, Audio and Theme. Please play and rate as many games as you can; it's what makes a jam fun for everyone.
