Hello, should all the game be about the cure?

Hello, should all the game be about the cure? Like should every level in game contain a talk about the cure? Hope someone answer.

I'm not 100% sure but I assume, as long as it fits the theme in someway (AI example given), it doesn't have to be related to diabetes. My thought process when it comes  to game jams is: If you remove the theme elements from your game...would the game still be playable. If the answer is yes then you might want to rethink a little. I'm not saying it's a bad idea as you can interpret the theme in anyway, however, just my 2 cents if you want to be scored highly in the theme category.

Best of luck

Hey, thanks for answering. I implemented the theme, but where you try to beat all levels to get the cure. In some levels it contain some talk about the cure but in some it don't. 

Oh, I think that is fine personally (I'm not in charge of the jam so take that lightly). I don't think every aspect of the game has to scream cure as long as it's implemented somewhere.

ok then, thanks for answering. Goodluck!

As long as your work the "find the cure" theme somewhere in your game it's fine. More creative integrations of the theme will score higher.
