I just want to get a sense if this idea is too removed from Interactive Fiction to count for this jam (I'm still gonna make the thing, I just want to know if it will count for this jam).

I plan on using GBStudio to make a brief top-down experience. Through dialog, one character will walk the other through my grandmother's spaghetti sauce recipe. There will be some choices in the beginning to determine some option ingredients, then the characters will walk to the store to get the final two ingredients (the key to the recipe) and return home. 

Through the walk and the bit at the store, there will be some dialog about my memories of my grandmother, where she lived in Montreal, the simplicity of the recipe, etc. When the two return home, it's not to the apartment they left, but to my grandmother's kitchen, where they cook the recipe while giving the full directions.

As the jam is focused on Interactive Fiction, I am just unsure if this format fits within what folks might consider IF. What do you think?
