The Newgrounds Touch Jam is now over, and the results are in! All games were played and tested by the Newgrounds staff, full details of which can be read here.

Nearly 100 entries were received which is a spectacular effort from all of you! It's great to see everyone's games also receiving lots of plays and feedback from the gaming community over at Newgrounds. Because so many entries were received, we've increased the prizes from 8 to 10!

A huge thank you to the team over at Newgrounds and Tom Fulp for running and supporting this competition with Scirra. We're looking forward to playing lots more HTML5 games on Newgrounds! A huge thank you to everyone that entered as well, we love seeing what people come up with in Construct 2.

The Journey to Heaven? by viivoices.

A game with an ambitious design: "The ability to make someone happy, sad, cry, smile and many other emotions are the reasons why I play and develop games." This game did a great job at establishing a moody atmosphere right from the go.
