I didn't know the material list would count for the intro, Thanks! <3

Hello! I really loved the concept of the jam and I wanted to make a game that would use images to save on word count.
For instance instead of putting materials: journal, 1d6, pen and cards. Print cards.pdf and cut to get the cards.
I'd put an illustration of a desk seen from above with a journal, a pen a six sided die and the cards with an arrow saying "Print cards.pdf and cut" to indicate you must print the cards.
Would something like that be ok or would the journal image, the pen image and the image of the cards count as the "using a symbol instead of a word" rule?
I want the game to be an image interpretation game so there would be a couple cards with pictures for the player to interpret as they please so I wanted to include a materials list with the printing indication so people don't get confused.
Thank you for the critique, I'll take it to heart! I'm working on a sort of rework of the game that will still be small, but expand on a few elements I felt like could be changed and one of the things I already wanted to work on was the monster encounters. I wanted to make them more fun and give the player a better chance to fight. I'll also add starting supplies, I think that will be a good idea!
Thank you so much again for your comment! I really appreciatte it!
I had finished my submission when someone pointed out that the back page was only meant for GM tools and not for rules. I'd like to ask what would qualify as a gm tool? Mine is a journaling solo rpg so it has lots of tables that are used through the game, could that be included in a back page? They are not exactly rules, just a list of prompts with numbers.
Thank you for pointing this out! They are meant to be different and you're meant to use the side that you saw first. I rewrote the instructions a couple times and I realized that this information is missing in the new version. I'll fix it right away!
[EDIT] This information was added to the instructions.
