Where to submit

Submit your entry on The Monster Bash itch.io jam page. Posting a Bash link in Discord alone does not submit an entry. You need an itch.io project page associated with the jam.

How to submit

  1. Create your experience on Bash.tv, or continue an existing project. Previously created assets and projects are welcome if you meaningfully build or develop the entry using Bash for the jam.
  2. Incorporate at least one asset from an official Halloween pack unchanged into the final experience. You can use other original or properly licensed assets and tools too.
  3. Make sure your experience fits one submission category: Horror or Cozy. Every eligible game is automatically considered for Best Overall.
  4. Create your **itch.io project page**. Give it a title, description, and preferably a screenshot or cover image.
  5. Make the game playable: Option A: include a publicly accessible Bash game link on the itch.io project page. Option B: export a playable build and upload it to itch.io. If you export, still provide your original Bash project link.
  6. Go to The Monster Bash jam listing and use its submission flow to enter your itch.io project before October 26 at 11:59 PM PT.
  7. Answer the submission questions below. Test the player-facing link or exported build so judges and voters can play.
