Hi there !
Question from a complete imgj newbie : are physical/analog games allowed in this jam? Or is it video-games only ?
 I have  a card-based solo rpg that needs a long overdue update, and this jam seemed like a good opportunity to finally get me working on it.

There are no restrictions on the type of games you can enter in our jam, however, it is difficult to get users to test your physical games... If you can manage to get members of the community on Discord to assist with the evaluation of your physical game, that would be great; however, if players need physical creations from you, the developer, to play it, it may not be easy to get feedback. 

Ok, thanks for your answer! It's a print-at-home game. Players download a pdf they can then print themselves. The game can also be played on a smartphone or laptop using a simple pdf reader. That's not the optimal experience, but still, it does the trick. 

Ill try it if you join
