Round Table Redundancy was created for the 2024 Global Game Jam, following the theme ‘Make me laugh’.

You play as a knight of the Round Table who is being made redundant, but you have one last duty, to find a successor.

There’s a catch though: What if there is no suitable successor?

You can’t be let go then… So your aim is to poke as many holes as you can in your fellow knights pitches, all without raising too much suspicion of your master plan. Maybe laugh along to a joke at your expense…
