Of course! Will put some up in a moment :) I can't afford to make my games free always bc it's my only source of income but I try to offer community copies to those who really need them :) 

Oh bless you! I didn't mean for you to rate it before you've played! (you might think it only deserves one star after all! XD ) But thankyou I do appreciate the support and I do hope you enjoy the game :) 

Of course! I'll put some more up in a bit. Please consider leaving a rating/review after you've played it if you like the game :) 

I'm really sorry the game didn't meet your expectations. It was made in the spirit of other minimal word open ended, lyrical games (like the single word rpg 'worms') and limited to 36 words for the 36 word game jam (each letter of the alphabet board counts as a word in the jam rules). I chose to keep the game as open to interpretation as possible and in playtesting I found that players used the prompt of two crows debating where they should dine today to use the alphabet board to generate narratives that were both playful and macabre. I'm very sorry that it didn't speak to your interests / imagination in a meaningful way.

This is so awesome!!! and as for the VERY SMALL  WAR  what is an adventure without a little bit of skirmish hey? XD At least it all ended in peace and hand shakes with a heroes' feast for all, as all wars should XD But yes, a-hem, so glad we rogues won bc this is fabulous! :D 

:D xx

LMFAO XD - done! xx - honestly it was worth joining the bundle just for this fabulous interaction! XD xx Thankyou for the socks! Bundle approved! I hope it's  a great success :D 

Hiya! No worries - these things are tricksy! You can DM me on blue sky - pennyblake@bsky.social :) 

So kind of you to give me a shout out! Thankyou! - and thanks for the wonderful game monster lab! :D

Oh thankyou so much! - ands so sorry! My brain is so dysfunctional I read the rules over and over and it just blanked that one out XD lol. 

Oh! Gotcha! - silly me, sorry, I guess I was too excited to see all the games! :D Thankyou so much you're very kind! :) 

Hi! I tried to view and rate this game but it says it requires a password to view the project page? 

Hiya! This is such a fab and creative jam I might have got carried away and made three games for it XD Is that ok? I submitted two so far but then I hesitated and second guessed myself and thought 'oh no - too much?' XD So apologies if it's only meant to be one submission, let me know and I'll remove two, it just REALLY got my brain working - it was so so hard a challenge for me and I loved trying to think outside the box and try to take the premise in different directions! :) 

Thanks so much for inviting me! :D 

Hi! That's so kind of you to invite me! I'd love to join - thankyou so much! :D 

Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy it if you get the chance to play! :)

Oh fab! Thanks for the tip then! :D 

Oh gosh I'm so sorry! I will put more up right away!! XD 

Thankyou so much! :D 

Thanks so much! :D I already submitted another game - White Witchmas - for Solovember so it seemed a bit greedy to submit two! :) 

Hi everyone! I'm Penny, a ttrpg designer, editor and sensitivity reader :) I mostly make cozy, horror and folkpunk games inspired by my own (Romani)  culture's folklore and mythos. I love all aspects of horror genre but for this jam I'm planning to make a short and punchy solo game using the theme of isolation :) I was super excited to find this jam that combines festive and horror - two of my fave themes to combo! - and I'm excited to see what everyone comes up with for it! :D I'll be putting community copies up of the game; if they run out and you want one please shout at me and I'll put more up - I try to make sure there's always community copies available for all but it's sometimes hard to notice when they run dry :) 

The person you'd be best to speak to on this is nuffofabby.bsky.social who is an award winning ttrpg performer, sensitivity reader and cultural consultant in this area as well as being one of the loveliest and most approachable people in the ttrpg community :) 

That's so kind! We both hope you really enjoy playing it!

Here's some more :)

Thanks for reaching out! I will post some pics of the inside! - there is one full colour file with fancy fonts and also a plain font print-friendly easy reader file included as well :) 

Fabulous! Hope you enjoy it lovely! xx

So glad you love it! - and woops, I mean that's great but I better put some more up! XD xxx

Awesome! Thankyou lovely! I'll put it in now then :D - and you toooo! Can't wait to see yours and everyone elses as well! :D

Thankyou! I really hope you enjoy it if you get the chance to play! :D 

Heyy! I JUST finished my game! XD It's a paid game because I'm donating all profits from my games to charity  atm  - but there are community copies available - is that ok?  - if there's no copies available you can poke me and I'll add more so there's enough for everyone in the jam who wants one , otherwise they generate through sales will that be alright? :) 

Thankyou so much lovely! I'm so glad you liked it :D xx

I'm so humbled and glad that you enjoyed the game so much! I'm also loving reading through all the submissions and feel so happy to have been part of such a lovely jam with so many great games! Thanks so much for hosting it for us! :D 

Thankyou so much for hosting this wonderful jam for us all! I can't wait to look at all the games properly and rate them all! :D 

Paks pal! 🙏 x x x

FIVE STARS!!! I LOVE IT!!! This is an absolutely gorgeous game - whimsical and story-focused it will appeal to anyone who loves the magic and mystery of the natural world. Being family-friendly is a beautiful bonus and I can well imagine groups of friends and families creating beautiful stories and memories together as their nature spirit characters strive to protect mother forest. A real little gem of a game! 

This looks amazing!! i can't wait to play it!!!

*giggles* xxx

I got some fab feedback from our fearless leader and made some tweaks and changes to the game! Sadly the edits are locked until voting is over but I'll upload the improved file as soon as it lets me :D 

Thankyou so very much to everyone who took part - I think all the entries look so heart warming and I'm really touched by the way each of you has engaged so deeply with the themes of the jam. I really hope everyone has had fun and that you will now take some time to look at, enjoy and engage with the other entries! I will be showcasing everyone's entry throughout June - some on my blog and some on youtube - and will let you know when your review/showcase is up. Hugest thanks again and I hope you all enjoy your summer! :) xx

I just changed the Jam closing date to end Sunday (2nd) instead, just because I don't want anyone to be stressing at the last minute. So, while it'd still be great if everyone can get their entries in my the end of today, if you're a couple of hours late or something comes up last minute, hopefully this just takes the stress off! xxx
