Ware-wolf Campfire Stories
FREE ON ITCH.IO
Awooooo the Ware-wolf is out and about tonight...
Ware-wolf Campfire Stories is a jam-type collaborative project made by devs in the Playdate community to celebrate the expanded abilities of the Pulp game environment.. and Halloween!
UPDATE! Ware-wolf has been nominated for THREE awards in The 2025 Playdate Community Awards
This is a gift to all Playdate players and also a fantastic showcase of what Pulp can do. A new Pulp Game Switcher made by Shaun Inman of Panic has been released (originally developed to help Pine come out on Playdate Catalog). This gave us the capability to drastically expand what a Pulp project can become.
Fifteen Dev teams came together to create games in about a 10-day window and then package them into a gameplay switcher. In Ware-wolf Campfire Stories, 5 kids are sitting around a fire with their counselor telling spoooooky tales! Each story launches a separate game that you may win or lose.... with consequences.
The counselor will remember games played and with 14 unique 'stories' you'll need to progress the night multiple times to play them all!
