Last month on Glitch, the October 2021 edition
Wow, it’s already over? Are the months going by faster? We were so excited for October to get here! We got to share Playlists with the Glitch community, and as a result, got to see the many amazing playlists you all came up with! Here are a few that we just have to brag about.
Outstanding October Playlists
- Tiny Templates by @tinyfactories, ♻️ remix these tiny templates to start a new project or just play around with some code.
- AZBS Generators, a collection of generators built by @AaronZBest
- No-sense Projects by @mat12143, the right place for no sense projects
- School Tools is a playlist of tools that educator @drewkerr made while learning to code
- @christinavoudouris is curating some Starters/Boilerplates
- Inspiration✨ are some apps that have inspired @dianaledist
As always, the Glitch community continued to inspire, surprise, and delight us with your creative concoctions during the past month. Here are a few of our favorite projects, tools, games, and more, created by you—the Glitch community!
Objectively On-the-ball October Projects

*You will want to bookmark ~meeting-starters by @EzraMechaber, to answer fun questions like “Do you like reality tv *shows?” and “Would you rather smell with your hands or talk with your feet?”
Helpful tools 🛠

Games we 💖

- ~gamemanu is a snake-like grid game with multi-player support by @num_gg. And because we love a countdown, there are only 59(!) days left in 2021. We can’t wait to see what you all come up with both before the new year and after. As always, if you have Glitch projects or playlists you built or love and want us to feature, either share them on the forum, tweet them to us @glitch or email [email protected]—we’d love to see your work in our next roundup! ✨
The project featured in this post’s header image is ~zombie-holocaust-generator built by @derekahmedzai, which lets you generate movie title cards in the style of the 1980 Italian horror film—spooky stuff!
