I know using pre-made assets is not allowed but does this also apply to code? 

Code will be fine as alot of participants are new to development and it helps even the playing field alittle. Just be sure to credit anything you use so we as judges can see how much it's been edited of at all!

Thanks, that makes things easier. The post above mentioned looking for edited code so I assumed you wanted both,  like Ludum Dare.
