Our Game Jam Top Picks (Inspiration OVERLOAD)

The mods and I have been working all day sorting through the Game Jam public vote results. We have concluded extensive vote manipulation has taken place, though the use of fake itch accounts, vote swaps and other underhanded techniques. As a result, the video format we had planned to announce the winners with will change, and focus on a hybrid selection, combining judges and community votes.

https://itch.io/jam/lost-relic-games-1

The Game Jam Vote Results are Dirty.
