Welcome to the second installment of the annual, Halloween-themed Jame Gam game jam!
Here, you have a week to make a game or a prototype. The winner will be announced after the end of the voting period that will immediately follow the closure of the submission window.
The jam will have a theme, like normal. However, the Special Object has been replaced by a set of Mutators, which are special conditions your game must follow, at least one from the set.
Theme & Mutators
Theme
A poll will be posted on the Discord server one week prior to the commencement of the jam.

Rules

• Your game must be made during the submission window
• Your game must follow the theme and follow at least one Mutator.

Q&A
Can we team up?
YES! You can ask for teammates on our Discord server!
What can I use to create my game?
Pretty much anything! You can even create a game without an engine (We won't recommend it, though). We also allow physical video games, just be sure make it clear that you've submitted one.
How do I go about implementing the theme?
You're free to implement the theme in any way you can think of. Go crazy, find an edge-case, we don't mind!
What is a Mutator?
A Mutator is a special condition your game must follow. You're supposed to take on at least one Mutator.
Can I update my game during the voting period?
You're free to update your game any time and as many times as you want.
Can I use third party assets?
Yes, you can use them, so long as you have the rights to use them.
