Curate, connect, and discover
This was a pretty fun event. I hope everyone enjoyed what they made :)
I made the art for Wally Darling, shout-out to idk for coming up with the idea and doing the coding.
Hey folks! Ghost Jam 2023 has concluded, and now it’s time to share the results! We have, once again, had a rather large turnout, so buckle up for a long post!
This year we had 25 submissions by 31 different developers. That’s 2 more submissions than last year!
Of those submissions, 6 of them were made in the first 72 hours of the jam, qualifying for our 72 hour challenge. 3 of those were even done within the first 24 hours!? That’s a first!
13 of the ghosts were made from scratch/just a single template, with no other pre-made assets, qualifying for our New Assets Only challenge!
Additionally, this year we saw a little more variety in the languages, both spoken language and coding language, used to make the ghosts! One ghost was submitted in Japanese, and another in Russian and Belarusian!
As far as coding languages go, most English ghosts use a language called YAYA (or sometimes the older version, AYA), but we had one entry in Satori, and one in Kawari!
Of the participants in the event, 20 of them were participating in a ghost jam for the first time, and 15 of them released their first ghost as a part of the jam!
Harder to quantify with stats, but still very interesting to note, was the great variety in ghosts that we saw this year! There are a lot of really creative entries that deviate from the standard ghost style. Some are desktop buds, some are focused on a single concept, some pull you into the character’s world, and some are entire games! Give them all a try, there’s a lot of cool stuff here!
With all of that out of the way, let’s see the ghosts! As mentioned, it’s a long post, so check under the cut for the listing!

My wife is the coolest. I turn 30 at the end of the month and as an early birthday present she made me a homemade plush of my favorite character from Bug Fables, Kabbu.
Here’s the character:
And here’s the plush she made:
HE’S SO SOFT AND HUGGABLE!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!! AND I LOVE MY WIFE! SHE’S THE BEST!!

Just spent a bazillion years making this guy, worth it.
Vote fuse for the @bug-oc tournament to avenge the fallen in the funniest way possible
Had a silly thought that reminded me of a silly quote that reminded me of them as something silly they would say.
Happy fourth. Happy pride. 💙
For some reason Twitter really liked this Selfship Pic and I can't explain why, maybe they mistook my Beetle for Kabbu
