A Casual track and a Gauntlet track. The Casual track will run for 8 (November 1 - 9) days with two optional critique sessions. These will happen during the regular stream time for Fox Hollow Games between 3 PM - 5 PM EST on the 3rd and 6th. If you want to receive a critique, but can't make it or don't want to be present for it, you can submit a request on the gamejam channel in the Fox Hollow <a href="https://discord.gg/MKTueDhCpZ" referrerpolicy="origin" rel="nofollow noopener">Discord</a> and I will get you a highlight of your relevant section.</p> <h2>Casual Rules:</h2> <ul><li>Teams of <strong>up to 5 individuals</strong> are allowed.</li><li>You must<strong> own the rights</strong> to any assets used.</li><li><strong>No generative AI</strong> can make it into the final submission.

No external asset packs or code snippets are allowed <strong>EXCEPT for the asset pack provided by Cartoon Coffee</strong> or any other free assets by Cartoon Coffee (such as his Essentials Pack or anything posted on his Discord).

What is signal, what is noise? Usually, we want as high of a ratio of signal-to-noise as possible. HOWEVER, games are an interactive medium about fun! Where's Waldo is an example of a LOW signal-to-noise ratio that makes a fun mechanic. While minimalist games are all about driving noise as close to 0 as they can.
