The story behind Shell Out Showdown
Shell Out Showdown is part of what has retroactively been termed the "molasses jam" run by the Bay Area Dev Collective. The theme of the jam was to make a violent genre non-violent. I picked the battle-royale genre, as it tends to be dominated by violent games, and Shell Out Showdown eventually came to life!These other molasses game jam games are also on Steam:
