The area will be revealed when the jam starts, this includes, but is not limited to: Forest, Space, An unknown planet, the bottom of the ocean, or other areas. It can be voted for on the Discord. Or here: Area Form. Still, you should join the discord because the winner will be announced there. You could also bounce ideas back and forth between you fellow devs.

Area: How well do you represent the area that is chosen?
Movement: How fun is it to move?
The Point: Why are you exploring? Is it to get a treasure? To make a map? Why?
Music and art: Do I have to explain?
Do I have to use the area that was voted on: No, but you will loose points (Look at question above).
What do you get for winning: The satisfaction of it, and maybe a little pixel art thing saying you won for on your game page. Maybe I will show the games off on my YouTube channel: GMJ YouTube
Can I work with a team: Yes, only submit the game once though.
Does it have to be 2d or 3d: Anything you want! 2d, 3d, 2.5d, 4d! (Top-down or platformer).
