That’s A Wrap On The Public Domain Game Jam! Techdirt has just concluded their fourth annual Gaming Like It's 19XX game jam, a celebration of creativity, gaming, and the public domain. All submitted games include reference to materials from 1927 that have now entered the public domain in the United States. All the submissions are up on itch.io.

It's actually the fifth (you probably repeated the error made here), meaning it stretches back to when works finally started lapsing into the public domain again in 2019.

Creampied! was not what I expected based on the name.

Then again, I may need to spend less time on adult sites.
