6. What are your goals for this game jam?

7. Any advice to new participants?
As someone said before me in this thread go for small scope dont overestimate what you can make in 2 weeks.
But my main advice would be to join team. Even if you feel like you can make it alone easily it is better to do it in team, because you alone will notice a lot less mistakes than others and most importantly you will meet people who are interested in the same "hobby" as you are. Game development journey is a long road and it is always good to have some people you can count on when you will be lost and wont know what to do. It will also help you stay focused on game development if you will know someone you can share your progress with.
