i dont know then im afraid, i have never worked with MS Edge. maybe attach a link to the asset here and maybe someone with a bit of knowledge on MS Edge may come long and help, perhaps the file format isnt suitable maybe, i dont really know. im sorry i cant be any more help. :)
there is no official theme for the game jam, you can make what you like. The 'themes' & 'art challenge' assets are just there to encourage people to use them, thats why the 'Bonus Voting criteria' was put in, but it's up to you if you use them you dont have to if you dont want to. if you choose to use a theme then you can use any of them, its your choice. :)
no, you can use any asset you like, long as you have the right permissions, but you must use a miniuim of 6 assets from OGA, 2 from each catagorie. the catagories are those in the browse tab. 2D art, 3D art, music, sound effects. the art challenge collection are assets that were created for the art challenge.
The jam does not start until Saturday 1st July, so you cannot submit anything yet, you can only join. once it starts that you will be able to submit project. You cannot start any coding/programming until the jam starts, but any planning you want to do before is fine, writing, collecting assets, creating assets, storyboarding etc.
Ideally I would like the material to be clean, in order for this to be open to all ages, so maybe it could encourage younger audiences into asset creation, or programming, however i dont want to discourage any sort of creativity, theres nothing wrong with blood and gore or horror and violance in games,(i love em) but it has to appeal to the right audience, its not something that i can police, and dont want to, its a game jam on itch so they will have there own policys on what age users should be,with that said i would ask if your game/project has such material then maybe a warning of some kind to let the user know of potential content, but this is really down to you guys making the game really. No games that could cause offense, racist etc, or discriminates, anything blatently offensive would be removed should there be complaints, but im hoping i wont need to do that and this game jam can be enjoyed by everybody. :)
the hash tag for twitter is #ogagamejam if you want to use it, il be happy to repost them but ive only got a few followers. :)
you could probably start a blog post somewhere maybe here, indie DB or other sites like that, thats up to you. ;)

@Xtheth, downloading the music and sound is the same as downloading the art assets. what are you using? Mac. Windows?
im off to bed now, its almost 3am here in the UK. any more questions on the jam I will answer when i pick them up tomorrow (in a few hours,haha).
try looking back up on this thread, your question may have already been answered.
Thanks.
yes, those are the themes.

@ElizaWY, yes we are, hahha, i cant type quick enough!

The 'themes' are on the front page of the jam, so is the art. :)
Themes from previous Art Challenges are:
Underground / PD Quick / Surt's Scraps / Share the Love / Science / Reborn
And the assets created for them can be found here:
Art Challenge Collection
the asset catagories are in the 'Browse' tab at the top of the OGA home page.
