Let's Dance to Joy Transmission - This mobile game was a parody built around incorporating 4 of the diversifiers from 2018;
The game play featured around holding down a DJ button (a joke on how little DJ's often do), and then using skills to keep the vampires entranced until sunrise when you can blast the sun off the disco ball and kill them all. It was intended to be a demo for what could then be a full mobile game, featuring an interactive map mini game (based around bouncing signals to find nightclubs) and character selection. Sadly, we didn't achieve the full scope that we hoped during the jam, but screen shots from the game are available below.
- to use day/night features as a mechanic
- to include a bird based character
- to include at least one Easter egg
- to have the art be based on an 80's pop song

Let's dance to joy transmission and celebrate the murder spree, all the vamps are burning hot and we're so happy.
Pick your DJ and take a ride in the Enigma Engine, hunting for a sweet mausoleum to play Joy Division's hit new song - Transmission (what? It's the 80's, after all) - and help some decade-themed gothic vampires get their groove on.
SIKE!
Being a DJ is just a front. Did you really think putting down a record and clicking some buttons made you a DJ? Sit down, you suck. It's all a cover for your vampire hunter business. Entrance the vamps with the sweet, sweet sounds of Joy Division to distract them until morning. Succeed, and the disco ball will drop it like it's hot - REAL hot - blasting sun from the skylights across the crowd and burning them where they stand.
Let's get this party lit.
