- For the game itself, if you dont know how to code, I reccomend an engine like Godot or the one reccomended by the homepage of this jam. If you are a bit experimented with coding, I reccomend Unity.

- For the art I suggest using Piskel (if your game aims for pixelart) or Inkscape (if your game aims for vectorial or simple art)

- If you dont need modern music, BoscaCeoil is great.

- If you dont want to make sprites or music, you can search for them in internet, but read the licenses and give credits

Open game art has some stuff you could use.

Also tutorials tutorials and tutorials. Watch a bunch.

But, Don't watch it for everything.

You need to know the Basics like:

    -What are the core fundamentals/ What is the game engine based on.

    -The libraries / language / UI and stuff.

If  you felt fimiliar with the game engine, framework, etc. Please try to discover advance things and try to break stuff up, A lot of people suffer from tutorial hell, Try your best to get out of it.

Don't aim too high, Feature Creep is kind of hard to escape.
