So we came up with the following options –rather vague quotes by famous writers– to inspire you! Our Discord community is deciding which one will be the main theme of the jam. Here they are:

• “When you light a candle, you also cast a shadow.” —Ursula K. Le Guin

• “Extinction is the rule. Survival is the exception.” —Carl Sagan

• “Who in the world am I? Ah, that’s the great puzzle.” —Lewis Carroll

• “I am at home among the trees.” —J.R.R. Tolkien

• “It’s supposed to be automatic, but actually you have to push this button.” —John Brunner

We have decided that the theme won’t be “enforced” by the rules, meaning that if you’re already developing an idea, then feel free to stick with it. However, we will ask you to include a reference to the theme to some extent in your game, even if it’s just an easter egg.
