Clarificatoin on the Rules?

Hi. I'm just asking about the rules:

"You can use pre-made assets that were not made for this jam, like asset packs, or assets from older projects of yours."
Does "assets" include game scripts and templates?
I've been working on a game template that allows RPG-dialogue stuff.
But to remake this from scratch would just be too much for a game jam for me.


"You may only make your game within the time frame, we do check. However, updates are allowed after the game has been submitted"
So i noticed the theme is already up. Is it okay to brainstorm before the game jam starts, and use any ideas/writing/character-models that fit the limitation once it's revealed?

Jam Host
  1. Scripts are allowed. So you’re good. As long as you didn’t make that template with the intention to use it for this specific jam, that is.

  2. Feel free to brainstorm and get ideas. However, making character models are out of the question, see answer 1. That is the reason the theme is revealed early. Just keep in mind that your idea will have to comply with the limitation.

Okay thanks. The template's only general, so it's not specific to this or any other game jam.
