As an onlooker who isn’t part of the GameBoy homebrew dev community I’m finding this all rather strange, and putting me off ever getting involved in a game jam. 🤔
I’m here because the game looks rather fun and was interested when the final release will be ready to play. 😅
The only thing I’ve learned from your experience is to never get involved in a game jam where copyright and money is involved. Or if I do, make sure the demo I submit only has a small subset of the final game.
Good luck with the final release!
