We took part in #DiscMasterJam. It's not our usual type of jam, which made it especially fun to play around with.
For this jam, we built a visual novel completely out of pre-internet assets from the internet archive! It's silly and weird and we had a ton of fun!

Huge thanks to Evan Sirchuk from @archive.org who I met at an Internet Archive meetup during #GDC 2024. Evan showed me DiscMaster and we realised that a game jam could breathe new life into these vintage assets while also promoting media preservation.
We can't wait to see what you create!
