My favourite #js13kgames 2022 entries!

I'd like to salute the involvement of all contestants this year, despite the quite difficult theme.

Some surprising implementations appeared this year, including pure CSS games & 3D games on 2D canvas.

Here are the most fun in my opinion.

- Incident at BIO13K (@remvst) js13kgames.com/entries/incide…
Creepy but fun, with impressive graphics, story and gameplay. No sound?

- Dying Dreams (@jani_m_n) js13kgames.com/entries/dying-…
An original puzzle game where the goal is to die. Lovely graphics.

- Yellow and blue (Schnark) js13kgames.com/entries/yellow…
A coop puzzle game, that's cool. Graphics come straight from the 90's though.

- Terror Defense (@AdrienGueret) js13kgames.com/entries/terror…
A tower defense game in a cemetery where you have to scare waves of visitors!

@platane_ @JoeVallet @curtastic Here are my 31 favorite games for #js13kgames 2022!
Sadly, some entries didn't start correctly on my browser, many only supported WASD keys (ugh), but the overall quality was very high: sound, music, 3D, pixel art, intro cinematics, physics… Lots of entries look like real games!
