just wanted to share some sketches i did for the game for @patchmagazine.bsky.social ’s game jam! we ran out of time but despite life’s obstacles, i’m glad we were able to finish with 30 mins to the deadline?? you can check out our game with the link below~

coderonan.itch.io/pumpkidex

a sketch of a nerdy pumpkin pushing his glassing up with his leafy hand going “um, actually!!”

a sketch of a girly pumpkin with a vine looped around as her bangs and hair, with a green bow on the back

a sketch of a proud pumpkin stacked on top of a fairytale book and pebbles fashioned in a way to look like a carriage with hastily drawn wheels and door

a sketch of a very tired pumpkin with a thousand yard stare like he’s been through war, sallowed cheeks and a five o’clock shadow, the man just wants to go home to his wife and pumpkin kids

I took part in my first #gamejam! I wrote our script, recipes, and history for each #pumpkin variety, and even did a bit of asset integration. If you have an @itch.io, and you'd like to support my team and I in the @patchmagazine.bsky.social game jam, you can find us here: itch.io/jam/patchmag...

Rate Pumpkidex by code.ronan, 2close2the2unn, JackMyGoodMan, monetti_w, fireboundfox for Patch Mag Jam 2025

The harvest this year is bountiful. Pick your pumpkin and create real recipes in this cosy point-and-click game!
