Game Jam FAQ —————————————————— Q: HOW DO I REGISTER FOR THE GAME JAM?

A: There is no official site for registering your team, all you have to do is join the jam and submit your game!

Only ONE person from each team needs to "sign-up" for the game jam on the itch page-- which can be found in #welcome--to participate.

Q: IS THERE A TEAM SIZE LIMIT?

A: There is no team size limit, however we generally recommend up to 6 members. As it can get hard to manage larger groups, but its entirely do-able.

Q: HOW DO I FIND A TEAM?

A: Worry not! We encourage you to introduce yourself in #introduce-yourself, then use the #team-find channel to connect with other developers!

——————————————————

Q: CAN MY TEAM USE PRE-PREPARED CODE OR ASSETS?

A: Yes. While we encourage everyone to create their project from scratch with their team, we understand that some teams might lack specific disciplines. Keep in mind that ultimately a game jam is meant to help you grow and if you do use any assets or pre-prepared code, you MUST credit them in your final submission to the itch page.

Q: CAN MY TEAM USE GEN AI?

A: The short answer is Yes. However, we encourage participants to not use it as the ultimate goal of a game jam is to learn. If you do use any gen ai in your project you MUST disclose it.
