FAQ:

Can I submit a game I made previously?  No. You can only submit projects made within the time frame.

Can I make changes during the judging period? Yes, just make sure that the original version of the jam can still be played. Only the original version will be judged.

Do I have to follow the theme? No, but your game will not be entered into judging.

Can I use code and assets from my other jam submissions? Yes, as long as you have the rights to use it.  The DTJ 36 hour Jam isn't strict on the "build it from scratch" rule.

Do I have to upload my submission in a particular format? We recommend you upload your game so it is playable in the itch.io web browser. However, a downloadable file also is fine. We recommend you upload your game so it is playable in the itch.io web browser. However, a downloadable file also is fine. If you do submit a downloadable file, please be aware that you might get less ratings, as some voters aren't comfortable downloading files. Some submissions may be bigger than itch.io's 1GB download limit - we recommend linking to a public google driver folder folder to work around this.

I couldn't submit on time, what do I do? There will be an announcement on the DTJ discord server, as well as a community post about how to submit late if you missed the deadline.
