Hello everybody! As promised, I have made a video about my favourite games of the GMTK Jam. These games all carry a certain spark, and reveal interesting trends that emerged from the theme.

Like: removing jumping means games need interesting new ways to get around. Removing combat means players will have to find creative ways to deal with foes. And removing direct control of characters leads to some very unique games.

Check it out!
