Hello, so this Jam and the Follow the Convoy Jam schedules cross, and I created a submission with the rules and themes of both jams in mind: Using the FtC procedure and Hyperspeed's "Keep moving. You never know what might be catching up." theme. However, I'm just now seeing the "specifically for the jam" and "no more than five essential images" part of the submission rules. Snag the Suit/Evac the Exec was made specifically for two jams, and I'm not quite sure what counts as an "essential" image, but I think I'm OK there. FWIW, I may have been led a bit astray by some of those that have already submitted, :sweat_smile:
All this to say: Would you be so kind as to verify whether or not Snag the Suit/Evac the Exec (which will get an font & small writing revision update this weekend) is suitable or not to the Hyperspeed Adventure Jam? Thanks for your time!
edit: for clarity
Howdy Chris. Those are good questions.
The “specifically for this jam” clause is meant to prevent pre-existing adventures from being submitted. Submissions that are made for this jam in addition to other jams happening at the same time are allowed. You’re perfectly fine to submit Snag the Suit/Evac the Exec to both jams.
As for the “essential images” clause, it was added as a counter-measure to people trying to circumvent the word limit. However, it has the unintended side-effect of barring any icon-heavy scenarios (such as yours). In response, I’m going to revise that rule so your adventure is allowed.
Ultimately: you’re fine to submit Snag the Suit/Evac the Exec. Thanks for taking the time to make an adventure, and ask me those questions.
