👻 Spooky Season is once again upon us...👻
Time to make fun spooky things!

This is a game+ jam for all creators in the St. Louis MO region!

⚠️ NOTE: The jam actually ends on October 18th. It just says the 15th on here because Meetup only allows events to be a maximum of 2 weeks.

The theme should be used as a creative spark for your creations!

+ We encourage everyone to make games but we will accept creations of all kinds for this jam! Feel free to make a video game, board game, card game, visual art, comic, zine, song, music album, visual novel, poem, short story, sculpture... anything!
