I created this section to share with you some games from this game jam that I truly enjoyed, and I highly recommend voting for them because I think they deserve it. I haven’t played every game, and you’re welcome to share other games here that you liked! I’ll start in order:

1. Shepherd - This is a fantastic game with an amazing comic-style visual design that blends 2D and 3D. It has a remarkable story and well-written dialogues. Unfortunately, some planned features didn’t work out, but if this game is polished to completion, it could be a real hit!
2. Night Drive - This is a stunning visual novel with an intriguing plot and an excellent visual style. It’s not a very long game, but its visual appeal more than makes up for it. I love that the story is self-contained and complete. The game has plenty of animations and even a parallax effect for the environment!
3. Somnia - I’ve played quite a few games in this jam, but I keep coming back to this one in my mind because it really left an impression. I love its dynamic combat, and the diverse monster designs keep me wanting to progress further. It’s quite spooky and has interesting mechanics, so I recommend playing and rating it.
4. TriumAI - This game has a high learning curve. It took me about 3-4 hours to understand the PDA mechanics, and that’s not a drawback at all. You play as a technical specialist tasked with shutting down a hostile AI core, hacking systems in a realistic way through your PDA. This game has fantastic mechanics and a memorable story, making it worth everyone’s time.
5. Classified - I enjoyed this game primarily for its atmosphere. It has some bugs and minor issues, but it’s a well-made game with clear potential to become something bigger than just a game jam entry. I highly encourage you to give it a try.

That’s about it. I know there are plenty of other great games in this game jam, like The Dollhouse and The Children of Clay. I enjoyed these games as well, but I wanted to spotlight the ones I felt might have been overlooked, and they deserve much more recognition! Thank you for reading this post, and I hope you’ll play and rate the games I mentioned!

I just played Bunker 73, and I highly recommend everyone try it. It hasn’t received many votes, which it certainly doesn’t deserve. This is an exemplary game made in a short time, one that could be a model for other games. It’s genuinely scary, and the story leaves room for players to piece it together on their own. Definitely give it a play!
