The Pixelated Toast Game Jam

The first game jam I will be hosting! It is a small game jam just for fun going between the 10th and 11th of September both at 2 pm AEST, (East Australia Time) so throughout the weekend, the judging will go from the 11th of September to the 16 of September.

I made this jam first of all because toast is the greatest food, and secondly, I just really like pixel art and 8-bit things. Also, toast +jam = jam on toast, so it's kind of fitting. Right?? 

Rules:

1. You can work solo or with a team (maximum 5 people)
2. For 2D, each sprite must be pixel art with a maximum size of 64x64 (the menus do not have to be pixel art but it is highly recommended as it will fit in with a pixel art environment)
3. For 3D, each object must be voxel art.
4. The scripts must be written within the jam unless it is a tool (audio manager,  character controller,  level transitions, etc)
5. Each sprite/object must be made by yourself or someone within a team.
6. The theme is required.
7. Music and SFX can be reused
8. You can use any software you want, as long as you are able to submit a video game within the time.
9. Only use things you are allowed to use.
10. No NSFW submissions.

Voting:

From the 11th to the 16th of September will be the judging. Every person who submits can judge. The games will be voted on with these topics.

Just remember, don't over-scope the project, and be realistic with what you can do in the time frame. But most importantly just have fun, there is no real pressure to compete, it is just a thing to have fun with.
