Improve My Game Outside This Jam

Hey,

just a simple question. Can I join and post an unfinished game now, and improve it over a period of 2 months? So in 2 months post an improved game for the Game Jam #6.  Although I really like the Jam as he provides me with people pushing me to work on, a 2 months period is a far better manageable timeslot for me. I would love to use the 2 day Jam slot to gather as much ideas about my game as possible, so I could end the jam with a list of 'to add or improve' things for the next 2 months rather then a list of things improved over the 2 days of the Jam.

Hi Kris,

Sure, you can do that. The idea is to movitvate devs to finish their games. However you would have to state your intentions in your attached devlog to your entry. Write what you want players to give you feedback on. The dev log helps you keep track of what you have done and also what you intend to do to improve your game. This is a great benefit to both you and your players. 

Note: - The jam duration only serves as a window to get your entry in. We do not hold devs accountable to only work during the jam duration. You can work on your game how long you want, even now. The aim is to finish your game.
