We've just revealed the theme for the jam! Can't wait to see what you come up with :)
Theme: Transitions and Transformations
January is a time of transitions and transformations. Life and death, old and new. Resolutions are a transformations of the self. Feature a transition in your game, but be as creative as you can. Transforming characters. Shifting environments. Perhaps you'll Scene and UI transitions? Dynamic music based on character actions? Need some examples to get the juices flowing?
- Timmy transforms in to shield to prevent damage
- Snowy the snowflake can transform into water to move fast, but can only attack when a snowflake
- All monsters turn red before they attack
- A custom snow-to-blizzard visual effect is used in between scenes
- A snowman has New Years resolutions and transforms as he accomplishes his goals
- The player changes appearance as they level up
- The environment changes to winter or spring if the player dies or is revived
