Yes, that's fine.

Awesome, glad to get some confirmation! Thanks a bunch!

The rules states "Dependancies and re-using small chunks from previous projects is allowed". What qualifies as small chunk?

IMO it seems too arbitrary to be enforceable.

We will not hesitate to ban you from the jam and it's discussion tabs permanently going forward if you repeat your worthless nit-picking from last year. People understand what the rules mean well enough, if they try to worm around them with wording technicalities then they're obviously just joining the jam to cause trouble as opposed to an actual desire to make something good, so will be banned. A 5-page essay isn't required to explain that "making your game before you're supposed to be making your game is bad actually".

Stuff like a text engine, a basic character controller script, or a menu handler. Little bits of groundwork stuff that you'd probably just code in the exact same way anyways. There's no real hard limit, just use your better judgement.
