"Don't start working on the game prior to the game jam, as it isn't fair to other participants starting from scratch." It was already answered in the rules all along: You're welcome. 😗
I know that it's against the rules, but all I'm saying is that someone could start working on it now as most jams announce the theme at the start to prevent this but we already know it.
Yes technically you could cheat, but that's not in the spirit of any game jam. Plus, those that would do something like that generally don't produce games that are any better than those that followed the rules.
We should we honest about ourselves..... This game jams are not about competition.... it is all about having FUN!. So just make a game that can satisfy you and have fun along the way!!!!.....
For this reason, I imagine many of us are going to be giving some serious side-eye to the 3 entries that have been submitted a mere 4 hours into the jam.
It's possible, after all, the 3hr game jam exists. Though, I would question the level of polish on a game made in 4hrs compared to one made over the duration of a 15 day jam.
