Starting Early

Are we allowed do any pre-development (storyboarding, character design, story things that dont include the actual script, sprite drawing, or coding) before the 15th? 

Jam Host (1 edit) (+2)

You should do your concepting during the jam, for two reasons:

1. We want participants to take inspiration from our opening symposium, and pre-making a concept might lock you into a less-relevant idea; 

2. Our top priority is for this jam to be sustainable for everyone from a workload perspective, and we worry that allowing people to start early would create pressure on others to do the same.

Hope that makes sense!

Yeah that makes sense! Thank you!
