Hey everyone! I’ve been playing through a bunch of entries from this jam and wow — there are so many creative and weirdly wonderful games here that deserve more eyes on them.

If you’ve made something you’re proud of (or found a game you think more people should try), drop it below! Let’s get some love going for the under-the-radar entries.

I’ll start — my game’s called Hush Boy Hush, a short eerie experience about silence, tension, and keeping calm when everything’s falling apart. But honestly, I’d love to see your work too. What’s your jam game about?

Let’s help each other get some well-earned feedback and ratings!

Posted before in a separate topic, but I guess this entries deserve some more attention:

  • Pause - super simple visuals, yet super cool gameplay and the overall game feel. Not sure how to name the genre, maybe platformer with a twist? Try it your self.

  • The dungeon keeper - another platformer, with another interesting twist. Totally deserves more rates.

  • Between the Alley - try this one for the good portion of good PSX vibes, not an ideal game, but an atmospheric one no less.

  • The Exam - barely a game, yet an important statement. Probably it’s a good idea to remind yourself of the real world horrors during the season of the artificial once’s.

i  made a stealth horror roguelike about exploring a house where you build rooms in a Blue Prince-style fashion. The game also features a sound-based system and a (sort of) advanced AI. From the visual and audio sides, I tried to make the project as atmospheric as possible. I’d really appreciate your feedback and thoughts!

SMASHING PUMPKINS - 2d Platformer

My entry only has a couple ratings so far, and I've put a lot of time into it.  It even has a level creator that lets you make your own levels.

Hi Iron Halo, thank you for the thoughtful gesture! My team created a unique monster/town management game where you can send out and micro manage your legion of monsters to go trick-or-treating. It features a number of unique monster with different traits and a sprawling town to explore. Kidly give it a shot and let us know what you think! https://tavvoc.itch.io/sweetstead-scholar-of-the-spooky-streets I will definitely return the favor to anyone who played our game :D

hey I'll definitely play it through! can't wait to give it a go. I saw you comment on mine thanks so much it means a lot!
