Thank you all for putting the bundle together!

I have a question about licensing. The music I’m using in a potential entry has seemingly contradictory licensing requirements when I go around to the musician’s various websites. I will replace the music if I can’t get the terms cleared up. That change would be done by June.

If I don’t submit to the bundle early, there’s an uncomfortably high chance I won’t return to the entry form until April. So do I submit the project now, or I should I wait until I’m completely confident about all the licensing terms?

Hello Acin, this is BáiYù of tofurocks here. It's unfortunate when assets don't have clear licensing and out of an abundance of caution, I might suggest submitting a secondary project that you're more confident about just in case you're unable to find replacements for those music tracks. Worst case scenario, drop us an email so we can figure out what to do for you.

Thank you.

Status: I’m on the search for appropriate public domain music. After I cancelled my application and posted here, the music creator returned my message that the song (under CC BY 4.0) may not be used for any game, which along with the supposed musician’s Q&A specifically encouraging game use has me questioning if the other side is only spitting out chatbot answers sans awareness of what the English-language statements mean.

This experience has me sore about using audio for anything published. I’ll make ebooks out of my games to reduce risks for the bundle.

Yikes! Sorry you had that experience. Please feel free to reach out if you need help putting that together, I know that spoons can be extremely variable on a day to day basis.
