This is announcing the October 3-Color Jam!
Co-hosted by Enargy and Castpixel
-- Work as you like any time between 101 and 1030
-- Games must be uploaded by 1031 (so we can play them onby Halloween, of course!)
-- RESTRICTIONS --

Only 3 colors may be used (if you want the palette to be configurable, that's fine -- the hard limit here is: 'only 3 colors should ever appear on the player's monitor during any given frame.' Yes, exactly what I just said.)
Games should be spooky! Spooookkkkyyyy!

Spoopy is also fine. Which is sort of like spooky but silly. Just.. it's officially the best month of the best season in the Northern Hemisphere though, so let's celebrate it! Bats, cats, vampires, witches, mummies, goblins, mad scientists, time travel, movie monsters, ghosts, possession, psychics, haunted mansions, cursed treasure, cannnndddyyy, trick or treating, twilight zone marathons, bad young adult horror, corny pulp horror, things in the closet, skeletons -- I will literally break the character on the this post if I'm allowed to continue.. (I really like this month!)

There are no time limits aside from the 'due date' of 1031. If you want to bang out something in a day, go for it. If you want to take a week, go for it. If you want to use your weekends from now until Halloween -- that's also fine. And you're also free to upload your game at any time if you happen to finish early.

--TIPS--
~ simple is fine -- you could even just use 2 colors (say, black and red Virtual Boy style?) if you wanted
~ 2 bits per pixel means you can fit a LOT of graphics in a small amount of sprite space
~ Working in teams is ok
~ Submitting more than one cart is okay
~ Text-based games (spooky choose your own adventure game??) are okay
~ Art scene demo carts are okay
~ Mini-games are fine too
~ Share progress with #3cjam and #pico8
~ If you have questions, post here or shout at me on twitter ( @enargy)
