At the moment simply to test the community and stick the post for future news, changes and any relevant info.

Also i have in mind add some 1bit stuff like fonts, icons,etc... that people can use in their games in case somebody needed.

1-Bit art for your games

I posted some 1-Bit art on my twitter account to be used on your games. Enjoy! ;)

GOOD LUCK WITH THE JAM !!!

1-bit was an awful name for the jam; there isn't such a thing as "1-bit graphics" or even "n-bit graphics" whatsoever, since "bit" is a term for hardware processing. Could have just called "Two Colors Jam". But i hope for the best nonetheless.

It's true that people often use 8-bit or 16-bit to refer to things that look they're from an 8-bit or 16-bit console (which doesn't really have any relation to the graphics themselves). But that doesn't mean there isn't such a thing as "n-bit graphics". When talking about graphics in terms of pixels 8-bit means 8 bits per pixel which gives you one of 256 values (usually mapping to one of 256 24-bit colors in a palette). For instance, a gameboy screen has a 2 bits per pixel display so you could call that 2-bit.

So in the case of this jam (with only 2 colors on the screen) you could represent a rendered frame of your game with only 1 bit per pixel (and a palette with 2 color values in it to reference). Hence 1-bit.

Want to point out there's also Game-icons.net with a huge selection of single-color icons and shameless self-promote my very tiny pixel font called MiniPixel.
