The 2026 theme was “mask.” Our game features the theme heavily in the mechanics as well as in the impementation.

The Sneaky Elementals team formed at the Vancouver site at Douglas College. Huge thanks to the organizers for hosting such an amazing event. It takes a lot to keep things running smoothly with over a hundred people making games in one space!

See how the game evolved in the Game Jam Devlog.
