Hey Grace, thank you for your question!

Personal Use licenses have more restrictions than just 'non-commercial use only'. Personal use licenses are not allowed for any software development, such as website software development, mobile app development, desktop application development, or video game development. It is against the license of the font for you to use it in a video game, regardless of what you do with the game afterwards (sell it, enter into a game jam etc). We recommend avoiding personal use licenses for any assets to create your game.

As for Adobe fonts, their license covers full commercial and non-commercial usage, so you are fine to use those. For our competition, we will not disqualify anyone using an Adobe font*, as we do not believe that will give anyone a competitive advantage, nor does it copy an asset create by someone else without their permission. 

*if the Adobe font provably used generative AI for its creation by Adobe, as this may be possible, then we would review the submission before accepting it into the competition.
