It's time for the first ever October Spooky Space Jam

It's October again, and that means ghosts, goblins, and ghouls are coming out. Some of them are friendly, and some of them aren't. Are you friendly with Casper the ghost, or are you running away from goblins that have an affinity for chasing people with chainsaws. But they won't hurt anybody when they catch them, right?

That's up to you.

I like to think of planets and space stations when I think of space. But, maybe you don't. Maybe you're just trying to get some space between you and that crazy zombie EX! It's up to you to decide what a spooky space game means to you.

Does your game have to be scary, or spooky? Well, no... I prefer cute space ghosts anyway. Just try to follow the theme, and if you don't it will look strange next to all the cute space witch and space goblin games up on the jam page.
