Nine teams of around 40 jammers are taking part in this year’s Scottish Game Jam, so here’s a handy guide to each of them and how their games are adhering to the theme of deception and the constraints of rinks, winks and sinks!
The Team: Monochrome - Yasmin, Stephen, John, Michael, Andrew
The Game – Ghostlight
The Pitch – Ghostlight is a platforming game revolving around a little boy trapped inside a haunted house. In order to escape the house he is equipped with a magic torchlight that is capable of shining light in three different ways: it can make platforms and interactive objects such as ladders appear, it can make walls and deceptive ghostly platforms disappear and repel ghosts which are attracted to the first two types of light.
The haunted house has multiple routes of escape and each is full of various tricks and traps you must navigate around using your magic torchlight and various ghosts you must dodge your way around while avoiding falling victim to the house and its devious ways.
