Riggy2k3 and Philly Game Mechanics are linking up! 

For this event, we're bridging the gap between the digital and physical realms! 
Get ready for a hauntingly fun jam as two Philly-built communities, the Philly Game Mechanics (PGM) and streamer/developer Riggy2k3, join forces for this year's October jam! 

While Riggy Jams are typically online-only, this time offering some of our developer friends a chance to see their work experienced both online AND face-to-face. Participants from both Riggy’s community and PGM are invited to create, collaborate, and get hands-on feedback in both online and offline settings. 

The theme for this jam is all about "Spooky Surprises"! 👻

Your greatest fear is sitting behind you in the backseat. A terror lurks a quaint supermarket, preying on unsuspecting shoppers. A children's show is hiding a dark secret. The spookiest scenarios you could think of, in the least expected ways possible...

Design a game about striking fear in the most unlikely way!


Before you begin working on your game, be sure to familiarize yourself with the rules:

  • Any game development tools, frameworks, or engines are allowed.
  • Your game should not include any copyrighted or illegal materials.
  • Games should be developed from start to finish between October 20 at 12:00 am and October 27 at 11:59 pm. 
  • Please submit by creating a page on Itch.io and submitting it to the event. (Let us know if you need help submitting!)
  • Minor post-jam bug fixes can be allowed after submission, but no significant content or feature additions.


Games will be showcased the following week both online and in-person via YouTube, Twitch, and in-person at a PGM event! Click here to visit PGM’s event calendar.

Join Riggy2k3 on stream for his jam game showcase on Monday, 10/28 at 6:00 pm EST! 
Additionally, the games will also be played LIVE by Philly’s own comedy gamer DZPG1 (date TBA), as well as good friend and indie fanatic MikeyBlighe on Nov. 2! More streams TBA!
