Do you have to be part of the 2LGBTQia+ or the pride flag to enter this game jam?

Someone help me out please!

The spirit of this game jam is for queer folks to make games together. I am not going to kick someone out based on their sexuality or gender identity, but I would be curious why someone who is straight and cisgender would be interested in joining.

because, I'm interested in learning these.

Just to ask, why is the pride flag 6 colour not 7 colour?

You’re asking about more than fifty years of history involving at least hundreds of decisions.

To summarize: there are many queer pride flags and several rainbow flags for LGBT(QI+) pride. The number of colors in the rainbow flags vary from six to twelve.

Gilbert Baker’s original pride flag had eight color stripes. The number of stripes were reduced for cost savings, because in fabric, some colors were more expensive than others.

Anyhow, I hope you find a game jam you enjoy then look for the Queer Game Jam bundle this summer.

Maybe someone will out together an educational game about queerness or game development. (I don’t think that’s me. I’m leaning toward fantasy quest. But maybe.)

I don't think this jam is the place to learn about queer games, to be honest. If you want to learn about those, I'd encourage you to go check out games and do the work on your own. We are getting together to create community together, not necessarily to teach others about LGBTQ+ things
