Fan Games Allowed?

So this is my first game jam ever so I don't know about the culture. Are fan games allowed? Before knowing about the jam, I have an idea to make a visual novel about an anime, so when I learn about NaNoRenO I thought I might as well try the challenge.

For clarification, I will draw all the art assets myself, though the characters and places would be from that anime. 

Fangames are allowed as long as all the assets are yours. And of course, this isn't legal advice, but some IPs prefer no fanworks, so it's recommended you look out for that. But yeah, totally allowed for this jam!

Ah gotcha, and also thank you for reminding me about the IPs. I double-checked with my friend again and she said as long as it's not for commercial use (which I don't plan to), there should be no problems.
