My entry for the #1927gamejam is live over on itch.io - I’m really excited by how it came out… though I have no friends, so it hasn’t been play-tested yet. ;-)

Take a gander, maybe print it out & give it a play, and while you’re over there: there’s still time to build something cool and enter it in the jam!

Trompe-l'oeil: A Game of Surreal Stories by TJJohn12

itch.io
I guess I should say I am participating in the #1927gamejam, writing a branching story that you can fail in Ink, I am excited for it to come together! Basing it off an Edward Hopper painting and a 1927 spiritualism book.

Requesting Feedback: So, here's a peek into where my brain has gone for #1927GameJam so far - inspired by René Magritte' 1927 paintings "La Musee d'une Nuit" and "La Clef des Songes." It's a game of telling stories - real and imagined - to other people then deciding if your friends are living in a fantasy world.

I'd love some folks to take a look at it - it's my first card game design and I don't know if it holds up. Would love some #Feedback. DM me if you're interested.

EDIT: Of course, after posting, I see the glaring spelling error. Chalk it up to my terrible high school French. ;-)

Stumbled on this GameJam and it looks absolutely amazing. Totally up the alley of folks here on peoplemaking.games

I already have a pretty functional prototype for a card game going - would love a couple experienced board gamers to glance at it to see if it's worth continuing to develop or not. It's a party game ala CAH or Apples to Apples only... very much not. DM or reply here.

Also - can't figure where I saw this, so can't give a hat-tip. That means I'm going to obsessively hashtag this post so others can refind it if needed...

Playing with an idea for the #1927GameJam. A Hardy Boys game seems like low hanging fruit (though maybe not so much as Lovecraft or Doyle), so I'm going in.....a different direction. Solo storytelling phase is done, and now I need to work up a solo combat engine for phase two, which is a new challenge for me.
