​Not So Scary (Family Friendly & more freedom in the build)

• ​The Monster Who's Afraid of Kids: Build a game where you help a nervous little monster get through trick-or-treating.

• ​Costume Chaos: Build a game where mixing and matching costume pieces changes your powers.

• ​Lights Out, Friends In: Build a game where the dark is a puzzle to solve together, not something to fear.

​The Horrors of AI

• ​The Helpful Assistant - Make a game where the AI that's meant to help or protect the player slowly becomes a threat. A friendly AI assistant of some sort learns from the player - and that becomes the horror. The more it helps you, predicts you, or imitates you, the more dangerous it gets. Can the player outsmart something that knows them better than they know themselves? It's "help" should feel unsettling well before it turns. Do you trust it, do you have any choice if you do?.

• ​Bad training data - AI trained on something it should never have seen, like unauthorized or unexpected data or a dead person's messages, voice, texts, and videos. It starts saying things they never said. It Remembers everything about you, and maybe even what you didn't even tell it specifically.

• ​AI in the wrong hands - Create a horror game where an AI was trained by a small misguided group and embodied to follow one of the Seven Deadly Sins as its core directive - Pride, Greed, Envy, Lust, Gluttony, Wrath, or Sloth - and has taken it to a terrifying extreme. The AI believes it is helping. The player must escape, resist, or shut it down before its sin consumes them.
