Now when I think of Easter,
I don’t think of material things.
I use it as a reminder
Of the joy it brings.
Official Judging:
Who?
This game jam is another one of the seasonal holiday game jams hosted by Princess Sonya and Empress DAX. This Easter Jam is our second Easter holiday themed game jam, the last time we had an Easter jam was in 2018.

You're already here! The jam will be hosted here on CloudNovel. To join, create a team for your project entry or join an existing team to participate in building a game project or drawing/design a character, background, object/item, GUI set, or composing a music/soundtrack or sound effect!
What?
The theme for the Easter Jam is holiday festivities on Easter day.
For visual novel entries, to help you kick start your Easter entries, we will give you several prompts that you can use. It is NOT required to use these prompts, and we encourage you to work on your original idea, but these prompts are here to help you start your project if you have no idea to start.
- Once there was a tortoise and a hare.... they had a race to see who ran the fastest.... we all know how this story ends, but what if there was some chick involved?
- This year, me and my siblings are having a competition to see who can find the most easter eggs. However, I'm not confident I can win this year's. Especially what happened last year this very day....

TW! Blood, Cringe, bad spelling, and a stupid plot
The Snowy Bunny is a VN for the Easter Jam, not intended for any other uses but I will keep it up after the game Jam!
The character sprites used are Gacha Club characters because it takes up less space
