Hello. I would like to ask a question. Is there anything not specified in the main rules overview that would be considered too much (even with content warnings)?

(3 edits)

Many of such instances would be handled on a case by case basis.  We got this question a bit last year as well, but in different forms:

A few quick, hard answers on some of the more common things:

Gore itself permitted when it is explicitly warned for.

Depictions of suicide are allowed when it is explicitly warned for.  Mentions of suicide are allowed, and we encourage warning for it.  Please distinguish between mentions and depictions in your warnings.  Encouragement or glorification of suicide is strongly discouraged.

Sexually explicit content is expressly forbidden from the entries as per the rules.  Anything as an extension of that would follow as well.  You can update your entries at a later point to include it.

Anything that could be constituted as hateful messaging or imagery.  Things that encourage racism, sexism or other discrimination against peoples.  

Harassment or encouraged harassment of real peoples.

This list is not exhaustive.  I would urge entrants to exercise good common sense regarding the content they enter into the contest.

Edit:

And, of course, feel free to ask ahead of time about your project/scene ideas either here or in our Discord.

Thank you! I'll take that into consideration.

What constitutes as gore for the sake of the jam? Like GORE gore, or will any blood do?
