VEND

My Submission for GameDev.tv Halloween Jam 2026

NOTE - It will likely take a little while to load first time around

VEND - A mysterious vending machine has appeared, dispensing strange items to those it deems worthy. But nothing is ever truly free. What price will you pay, and what might you be inviting in?

The Goal - Everything has value, and the machine demands a quota. Each day the player must dispense items to earn their value back as credits in order to fulfil a quota. Items when dispensed together in combinations grant bonuses leading to higher and higher scores. 

Story - The player plays through 7 days, balance is fairly easy and the game ends after the 7th day which unlocks endless mode

Endless Mode - challenge yourself to get as far as possible, the quota increases each day and will require learning what item combos produce the best value, and what upgrades benefit you the most to push your score higher and higher

This is my second game jam, and second real project. There are some features I didn't have time to fully implement but I managed to get all the core systems and visuals finished. 

All 3D models, Textures, UI Elements and were created by me during the course of the game jam

Music and SFX were sourced from several commercially licensed audio packs purchased via Humble Bundle
