The screen crackles to life, first it’s a static snowstorm and then an video stutter-steps into motion. You sit up on the count, thinking, “That’s weird”, you think, remembering you turned the TV off. Those concerns are quickly forgotten, as the video jump cuts to new footage stranger than the last. Astonished, you can’t look away.

“What even is this?” You push buttons on the remote to no effect. 

The footage jumps again. And you reach for a notebook, there are patterns here. Messages.

But of course, this isn’t some anomalous transmission glitch, it’s an invitation. 

You are receiving a signal from deep within the Lost Bay.

This is a video footage vibe jam. Like a traditional game Jam, except we will be producing play material that responds to the 199X Lost Bay vibe video playlist. Participants are free to create and submit anything for The Lost Bay RPG: vibe, miracle, setting, module, whatever, inspired by one of the videos listed in the jam page. You can even submit a video!

Right now, and during the whole month of September, we gather video links. You’re free, nah you’re encouraged, to submit one or more videos (youtube, or anything else, as long as they’re free): we need dark, odd, eerie, grunge, suburban videos, skate videos, found footage, regional mall commercials, TV shows.
