Game made for the Winter MelonJam 2025. The theme is MASK.

Graffiti Libre is a vibrant logic puzzle game. Using a combination of spray cans and layered stencils, you must recreate iconic Mexican wrestling masks.

The Goal: Match the target mask shown on your screen.

The Mechanics: 1. Place Stencils: Choose which patterns to lay down first. 2. Spray Color: When you click a color, the entire mask is painted—except for what you’ve blocked off. 3. The Puzzle: You must work "outside-in" or "bottom-to-top." The challenge lies in identifying which shapes are hidden behind others to find the perfect sequence.

 Inspired by the topic (Mask), the graffiti culture in Vienna, and my Mexican heritage, I combined all of that into this game. 

The background is a photo I took specially for the Jam. It is in the Vienna Canal. I drew all the sprites and coded the game using GameMaker. But the sound effects and music are external assets:

Sound effects from freesound.org:

•  WHEN YOU MOVE A STENCIL: 88561__movingplaid__spray_can_07
• WHEN PAINTING: 240899__skydran__spray-paint
• AT THE START OF EACH LEVEL: 657790__theplax__spray-can-shake-8
• WHEN CLICKING A BUTTON: 707042__vilkas_sound__vs-button-click-05

The music is from Newgrounds:

The font for the mask names is called Wartorn from Dafont.

Thanks to the organizer of the Jam, I am happy with this game, regardless of the result. I am totally going to increase the number of masks after the jam.
