Does it mean that instead of 3 equal finalists, now they will be ranked (like gold/silver/bronze)?

The theme is going to be avocados, specifically the Hass variety. Get started folks!

[LightPS]

It'd be hilarious if the theme would also be related with cats and oooo Space Cats. That's Intersting.

[SamTheGodOfWar]

hello unreal. I am a young 13 year old teenager and wanna participate in the jam. In your last year rule list u said that the participant should be at least 16 years old. Can I still participate? If possible because I am quite young aspiring developer. Thanking you Epic

[Trickbag Games]

Is using plugins allowed within Game Jams? So if you had a plugin which extends blueprint functions would you still be eligible? It would make sense if you could but the last thing I want is to get dinged for not using base unreal engine.

[SeraphSword]

Any word on when the official rules will be coming?

Also is it possible to report posts somehow? Referring to the spambot a couple posts up.

[Mike Pitts]

Can't wait to go.

Has anyone gotten a response from Quixel as yet regarding the free account?
