Hello, it's my first time doing a game jam but Im a little confused about how long we have to work on our projects? Do we only start working once submissions are open? Or is it just 24-48 hours. Thank you anyone who can clear things up for me!
Ideally, in other jams, you only start doing the game when submission opens; but since I have revealed the theme since the jam was first created (mostly because I am a forgetful person and the last thing I want is to forget revealing the theme when the jam starts :P), you are free to start working on your game now.
And no, this jam is not just 24-48 hours. It's 15.5 days, or ~40 days if you count the days before submission opens. Many jams are just 48hr, but a ton others are a week long, this one is roughly two week long, and there are even others that are months long
