Are metagames allowed?

I was brainstorming a bit and had a few cool metagame ideas. Basically not playing a game on a 3310, but having a game where you play with the 3310. Doing this would require the use of the menu navigation buttons, breaking the 12 button rule in this regard.

Should this contradict the jams purpose, its not a problem. I'll just do something else and realize my ideas on my own time.

So essentially you want to create a 3310 emulator? As in you could actually “use” the phone? I don’t see too much of a problem with that but I would want to potentially adjust the rules to allow all possible buttons so I am not making case by case exceptions. Let me give it a bit more thought and I’ll get back to you.

Realistically it wouldn't be a full blown emulator (I program to slowly to make that in 7 days), just the ability to switch between "apps" with some of them using a fake phone functionality.

I'd like to thank you for taking it into consideration and will respect your judgment.

Gonna give you a green light for this. Just make sure to specify what you're doing in the games description. Also if there is a game within the phone that should only use the keypad controls.
