This reminds me of a recurring question around AI: Who values process vs outcome, when? Do you jam to try sth new, to practice your skills? Or do you race to produce the most finished-looking game? Jams might be framed more explicitly around one of these to help attract those they hope to reach.
Also a friendly reminder that we do NOT allow the use of generative AI for art and audio assets. And that includes your itch․io thumbnail. Don't worry, we'll know. Because it looks like complete shit.
