I didn't see any rules about it either but most creatives don't really like generative AI so it's almost always received badly in those circles .

I don't think Generative AI should be used at all. The purpose of a game jam is to create, socialise and have fun, when you use AI you take away a lot of it away, for example if you can't draw(or don't have the time to) you can always find an artist and make a new friend(thats what i do).
Also most people use these jams and even itch.io itself to see what other people made and their unique look. Using AI takes that away.
I'm not gonna get into the ethics of using AI because this isn't the place for it and I'm sure you have heard about it already.
Sorry for the long reply I just wanted to be clear in my response.
The game is hard to understand and has a few bugs, but it was the most interesting concept I have seen so far and its really fun to play. I am putting this on my collection and would like to return to it if you decide to update it.
Bugs I saw:
-When I first opened the game, half of the top UI was missing and it made the game unplayable
-Multipliers don't reset when the game is restarted
-Some UI elements blocks the cursor so we can't pick anything up
-The middle box for calculations don't work (You can still get it's functionality from the left bar somehow?)
It's very hard to put down and holding down for continuous fire is a very nice touch but I would like to see the gates utilized more effectively, currently they are kind of hard to spot while playing the game and they don't really have any indication on what they do (other than the tutorial text) it would be nice to see if their effects are positive or negative while playing. (My high score is 13.887 :D )
It is really challenging, which i like. Its graphics are cute. I saw a few minor quality of life adjustment you might want to add (if you are not making a rage game that is ;) ) when player releases the up button the players upward speed immediately goes to zero, you might want to make it so it only halves the speed, also you might want to make collision a little more forgiving and the spikes look a little like mushrooms you might want to add a shine or some other effect to differentiate it.
But at the end of it all i am only being this harsh because i really liked this game and want to see a full version of it.
