We recommended a quite colorful mix of jam submissions and indie games on our Twitter account in March 2020. So marvel once briefly the sixteen games and then choose the most suitable for you to play! Maybe you would like to study the difference between an ice cream sundae and a cat, or maybe you want to take possession of tetrominos as a ghost, or would you rather repair everything as a sentient tape roll? Anything is possible!
