💭Theme: Nostalgia

🎨Limitation: Surprise Palette

CrocoPal, a custom made 8-color palette for CrocoJam #2 by ANoob!

If you'd like some more colors to work with, you can also use antiquity16  by ILTA

https://lospec.com/palette-list/antiquity16

Quick note: The theme is intended for inspiration and the limitation is a fun little twist on the whole jam. If you feel the palette choice too limiting or the color palette is not working for you, please feel free to pick a different one (great collection at the Lospec palette list) or just ignore the limitation! This is about having fun, not strict adherence. Anything goes as long as you are having fun creating something!

❔Do I have to use Crocotile 3D?

No, any kind of software is allowed to create your artworks, it just so happens that we really like Crocotile 3D! You can download the free demo version on itch.

❔Do I have to follow the theme / the limitation?

Not at all! This is about having fun and creating a piece of art within the time constraint. If you feel that the theme or the palette are limiting you, kick them to the curb!
