Hi everyone, hope the games are coming along nicely!

We're guessing this kind of thing just happens with submissions in all game jams, but as it's our first time hosting one we don't know what to expect. Just in case here's a small post you're free to ignore if it doesn't concern you ٩(`･ω･´)و

One of the only rules we have is no use of Gen AI in the game. Using art as an example, it's perfectly fine if all of your characters are hand drawn stick figures, just cubes and cylinders made in the game engine itself (like placeholders), even (non-AI) free to use models you found online, we just want the games to be made by humans, and showcasing the use of (at least some) open source in games development (the games themselves also being open source would be cool as hell too, but not a solid requirement).

We've been getting submissions like links to Steam pages for games that  aren't going to be available to play for several more months lol, but mainly submissions openly mentioning their use of Gen AI for art, code, even the entire game!, and so on...

The entries do not have to be masterpieces, just human-made ( ･∀･)っ凵凵c(･∀･ ) thanks for reading, and have fun!
