Ever felt like there's a lack of vampiric horror on itch?
Maybe not - but we did. That's why we're proud to present the Vampire Horror Jam 3D.
This jam is all about blood, mystery, and the darkness that binds us.
Whether you're crafting something new or finishing a project long buried, you're welcome -
as long as it fits the vampiric horror theme.
We especially encourage games that bring the undead to life in three dimensions.
From low-poly bloodbaths to eerie night drives, this is your chance to sink your teeth into 3D level design, gameplay, environments, and aesthetics.
We believe in the power of community.
While rankings matter, your involvement and feedback will be just as important.
Rate, comment, support - help keep the undead alive.
The theme is already set:
Vampire Horror
Youβre free to start preparing ideas, assets, and writing in advance.
Unfinished project? No problem - use this jam as a reason to finally finish it.
Entries will be judged on the following:
Theme β how well it embodies Vampire Horror
Horror β atmosphere, tension, fear factor
Innovation β fresh ideas, unique twists
Stakes β intensity, player engagement, dramatic weight
Graphics β visual style and presentation
Community Spirit β feedback, interaction, support
3D (2.5 included) β use of 3D/2.5D to bring the world to life
To add a little flavor, we'll be revealing an optional bonus theme when the jam begins.
Itβs completely optional - just there to inspire or challenge you.
The bonus theme is:

Didnβt finish your vampire horror game? Second Bite is your chance to return.
This follow-up event lets you revisit, expand, or reimagine your entry - now reshaped by the winning game.
The Winnerβs creation becomes the new theme, taking over the jam page and guiding the darkness to come
