#4 ABOUT THE JAM Month of Horror is a casual horror game jam, open to any game engine and style of horror game. Simply put, make a horror game based on the jam's Theme, using whatever tools you want.

Bonus Challenges 1) Inner Demons: The game's story is focused on exploring some character's mental state and their struggles with their deteriorating mental health. 2) Malevolent Muse: The game's story includes a being that acts as the muse of some artist, but also has some sinister agenda of their own. 3) Magnum Opus: The goal of the game is for the protagonist to either create or find some particularly great piece of art.…
