Goal of the Jam is to create games inspired by David Lynch,
without directly recreating or adapting his existing works.
The focus is on capturing a Lynchian mood and atmosphere rather than lifting scenes or stories.
You may reference Lynch’s works, but try not to rely on them too heavily.
The aim is for you to step into the unknown and make something that inspires you!
Create a game with that uneasy, dream-like tone, that invites interpretation,
reflection, and leaves players with a lingering mystery.
Jam is primarily hosted at HauntedPS1 Discord server,

Jam page is set public early, so you can begin feeding those small fishes in your mind. But please refrain from developing for the jam before January 5th.
Happy holidays! Get proper rest for next year!
Keep the scope small, focus on the little fish.
Who knows, this small jam project may become the bait for your next big idea?
After the jam concludes, we will create a loose ranking video,
where Skully the Skeleton of HauntedPS1 fame will play through and offer brief reviews of the submissions.
