Hi!
- On the jam page there's a minor guideline regarding art.
Bold art. Try to follow the art direction of classic arcade games, be it pixel art or not. Try to use limited colors and simple iconic shapes.
And what the jam page says about those guidelines:
This isn't a ranked game jam and rules aren't strict, but try to follow the major guidelines (and as many as the minor ones as you want)
We're trying to encourage people to recreate the art direction of classic arcade games, but you are free to ignore that.
- As the page says, we take all kinds of submissions. Downloadable are fine.
Can I use twine? How about a boardgame?
Everything is allowed, just try to get creative to adapt the guidelines.
