Rule #33 can also be enforced subjectively as grounds for removal in extreme severe cases (e.g. Violations of any rules in bold will definitely lead to removal of your submission. Those of you who know what I referenced, high five to you!) I was just making a little joke reference. Submit games that are made for the sake of this jam.Rule #33: Thou shalt respect the unwritten rules for game jams in general:.Despite my discouragement however, submissions with political undertone/statements are generally safe from removal as long as it is kept civil but submissions with toxic messages such as those that target/judge/harass people based on unchangable identities may be subject to removal. Due to the toxic and divisive nature of the topic, I have always discouraged the inclusion of politics into my jam since the start of MGGJ, and I STILL discourage the inclusion of politics in MGGJ5. Rule #480224 (added due to recent events): Please be very careful if thou ever decide to insert politics into your game.Some suggestions that were given by the more IT affluent members of the MGGJ discord include running executables inside a virtual machine. Due to this reason I strongly encourage jam participants to put a browser playable versions of their games if possible, and for players to be absolutely sure the program is safe when running an executable file.

Bare minimum criteria: no female n*ppl*s, no genitalia - as long as you fulfill those you are safe from this rule. I would prefer it however, if you do more than that bare minimum. Gore NSFW are mostly unrestricted but I'd prefer it if you don't show internal organs splattering on the ground or something.Rule #164295: Thou shalt properly follow the themes or other forms the specific MGGJ might have (for MGGJ5, the themes are in the form of genre mashups).C reating an original character is strongly encouraged. For the purpose of this jam, the bare minimum requirement is a " Girl with Magical Power" - as long as you fulfill this, I won't remove your submission for that specific reason.
