Bad controls and basic visuals. You might have a game here if you keep the mechanics and gut everything else.

Hi there!
I just wanted to report that several entries to this game jam may need to be removed due to not following the rules.
I tried reaching out via email, but it was returned to sender. That, combined with the fact that MCLSoftware doesn’t have Discord means now I’m stuck posting here and looking like the bad guy.
I’m not even going to post my submission if it isn’t taken care of/clarified.
1) Are people with multiple submissions to the game jam allowed a vote for each entry? If so, the people who have submitted multiple games have the ability to cheat the system (whether intentional or not).
2) You have more than a few submissions that are paid entries which are against the rules.
3) There are also a bunch of entries that are completely unrelated to the topic and blatantly break that rule.
Can you please clarify what your action is going to be on these points? I know myself and a lot of others put in a ton of effort for this, and I hope you can help the people who adhered to the rules have a fair chance.
Why doesn’t the host actually respond or moderate their own game jam? It’s been cluttered with games that blatantly break the rules (paid, unrelated topic, multiple submissions by individual people, and games that were finished before the jam even started) since the beginning and I haven’t seen MCLSoftware do anything about it.
I’m not submitting a game until the issues are addressed. I’d rather use my work on a better-managed game jam later if things don’t get handled properly.
