Do we have to purchase the assets or are there going to be free/discounted assets available specifically for the jam?

There won’t be any new free assets available for the Jam, no. We do have a variety of existing, free assets here which you may utilise: https://syntystore.com/collections/free-synty-assets

We also have the All Access Pass though, which is our subscription service that provides you with access to our entire library while you are subscribed. It’s a great way to access our library without forking out the full price of one pack :)

The All Access Pass is exactly what I was thinking would be a great thing to try for the jam. It will guarantee that my project ends before my subscription does.
