FAQ
Do I have to follow the theme? No, the theme is completely optional. Additionally, there are no extra points for following it.
Do I need to use Godot? Yes, that's the whole point of this game jam: to improve your Godot skills, so if you don't use Godot, it won't make sense.
Last Thing
The games that you submit to this jam, must be made for the jam. This jam is not a way to advertise your already-made games, it's a way to learn and improve your own skills. To help you when you create games in the future, or when your fixing games in the present.
