(5/5) #SummerEntryJam FAQ:
Q: Can participants join multiple teams?
A: To keep things fair and focused, participants cannot join multiple teams during the jam. Since it’s a ranked event, this ensures everyone can fully commit to their team’s project and keeps the competition balanced!
(4/5) #SummerEntryJam FAQ:
Q: Is this jam exclusively for entry-level participants only?
A: Not at all! While the jam focuses on supporting entry-level devs, everyone is welcome to join!
(3/5) #SummerEntryJam FAQ:
Q: Do we keep ownership of our submissions once the jam ends?
A: Yes! You retain full ownership of your submissions. Just a quick note: if you include Fishhook, our mascot, the rights to that character remain with us.
(2/5) #SummerEntryJam FAQ:
Q: Is the pre-jam week a strict part of the jam? Can I start programming during that week or tweak the game’s concept afterward?
A: The pre-jam week is for brainstorming and planning. Though not prohibited, development should ideally start when the jam officially begins!
(1/5) #SummerEntryJam FAQ:
