Fall in Love Visual Novel Festival is now Live! Please spread the word as Steam were very mean and took away almost all of the visibility for this festival 😭. If we all come together as a community we can still have an amazing fest! #FallinLoveFestival store.steampowered.com/curator/4624...

i really wish itchio had an easy to see all the game jams someone has hosted... ig its not a feature many people would ever need/use but at least an option to enable it for creators that regularly host them would be nice
