Also if i may, you guys are doing a lot of fearmongering for a fangame, fancontent jam - and what people can use. I'm not talking about the no-nsfw or no-ai, that stuff is reasonable, im talking about all the fearmongering about the sprite usage and copyright. 

"Use only copyright-safe assets with attribution" "🛈 Using original sprites without modification may violate copyright or jam rules.

Genuine question, did you guys not look up how copyright laws around fanworks work before forming the jam? Not a lawyer, but a quick search shows that for the USA, fan work is typically "fair use" - as long as it is transformative, non-commercial, and do not harm the original market.  Why link the original sprites if you're not even sure on that? 

As per another thread, you guys don't seem concerned about copyright laws when it comes to using UTDR music, when historically when Sebastian Wolf was the one in charge of the music it was the one most at risk. I'm so confused on how this is being handled. 

It's all being handled very odd.
