Hey y'all, Jellyfishlines here!

I turned 24 on December 17th and I only found out too late that people hosted birthday game jams (see Superdillin's and Viditya Voleti's birthday game jams as examples.) I'd love to see people get inspired by the things I like and love and see their interpretation of the art and media I enjoy.  Example lists are below.

A SHORTLIST OF THINGS I WILL LOVE:
- Folklore, mythology, and world religion related things (the more obscure the better)
- Horror genre art (ALIEN (1979), The Thing (1982), The Witch, Nosferatu, NOPE, etc.)
- Horror folklore (old and modern)
- Gothic Horror
- Weird art movies. Also weird art in general.
- Zines and games about your own special interests
- Poetry
- Weird deep ocean animals
- Sad games. Games that make me sad. Please, they sustain me. 
- Obscure history
- Monsters as allegories for things that aren't monsters/people's actions
--- Alternatively: Monsters as protectors of community rather than a threat
- Anything Disability culture and history related 
- Tarot readings

A LIST OF SPECIAL INTERESTS, PAST AND PRESENT:
- Blue Planet: Seas of Life
- ALIEN 
- Regional Cultural Folklore (American)
- Cultural Folklore (Not American!) 
- Mythology
-The sociology of Death and the function of grief and mourning
- Internet subcultures surrounding horror
- Disability culture and history
- The works of Franny Choi, Chen Chen, C. T. Salazar, and others
- Queer culture (old and new)

WHAT IS ALLOWED FOR THE JAM?
This jam is open for NEW and OLD BUT UPDATED:
- TTRPGs (ashcans are allowed!)
- Zines
- Short Stories/Fiction
- General weird shit y'all are proud of
