12. You cannot work on the game before the jam officially starts. Majority of code must be written during the jam.

13. Your game must be original to an extent: No very obvious reskins or anything that can be considered completely a copy

14. We reserve the right to withhold or lessen prizes if we deem a submission to have broken rules or show insufficient effort.
