Hello, I was wondering what the theme of the jam was going to be. As of 10:56 it seems to still be unannounced.
Nooo! I was hoping for a more "substancial" theme with a direction. Simply 1-bit has too much room for me. And -even though it's not allowed- anyone can submit their old 1-bit asset pack.
Well I could make a 1-bit computer themed asset pack, but other than a 1-bit chip and 1-bit CRT screen, I dunno.
Actually you are right. It is more like "restriction". I thought about jams where you have a "theme" (what to draw) and some "restriction" (how to draw, style, size and etc.). Yeah, 1bit is a restriction not a theme... But I think that every jam will be so it won't so good. So my plan is looped.
Themed -> Restricted -> Themed and Restricted -> Themed....
If restriction has to much space for you, just imagine any non 1bit asset and draw it in 1bit. For example I am going to draw a bat. Maybe I will change the decision and will draw something else...
