If you have any questions, just put them here!

so im super new to game development so is there like a skill requirement to this or something

Host

Not at all!

alr thanks dude :)

Cool jam idea!
Is there any additional scoring metric beyond a game's minimalist aesthetic? Will there be a theme? 

Host

Yes, there will be a theme and here is the criteria:

How Simple is the gameplay?

How Unique Is It?

How Fun Is It?

How Abstract Is It?

I then take the average of each one and put it into the overall category.

Top 3 scores win.

Hey, when are you going to publish the Theme?

Host

As soon as the jam starts!

Thank you!!! :)

I was going to ask if there was a theme I already came up with a card game 馃槀

Host

Yeah theres a theme but there is always a way to still use your idea following the theme!

Heya ! 
Is coding assist with AI allowed ?

Host

You still have to write some code. But if you are stuck on something then using ai a little bit is fine.

Submitted

Thanks for the answer okay

Submitted

so uh...how long is the voting period, and is phychologically disturbing content allowed

Host

Yeah, just note it before the game starts. The voting period is around 4 days and half!

Submitted

am I able to have more than one entry?

Host

Yeah, just don't put in a ton of bad games on purpose.

Submitted

ok thanks!

Submitted

can i update my game in the voting period?

Submitted

Just to clarify, what do you mean by 'Abstract' in the judging criteria?

Submitted

do you think you will will be hosting a second minimalist game jam any time soon?
