I have no reason to not believe you, so I am very impressed you achieved this in 2 weeks, especially if you just started with a game engine you don't know. I meant no offense of course.
I don't think there was a rule that said the theme "was not necessary", but yes regardless, I think this is a more relaxed jam anyways, nobody really cares, and the general idea (with this and actually more serious game jams) is that you can 'interpret' the theme however you like. There is no right or wrong way, ever! ;) All I was trying to say is that I didn't even see an effort of some interpretation and I was just left wondering, maybe I missed a clue...
