Anyways, getting serious again now, I can feel that most of you guys are very passionate about this "promoting OGA" thing. But I feel having such a specific purpose like that could alienate a some people from participating, at least it does that to me. And if significantly fewer people end up joining the next jam due to the theme being more restrictive, you may not get closer to achieving what you wish for anyway. That is of course, just pure speculation on my side :P
I also feel the way the themes are chosen for the art challenges themselves isn't ideal, and if you want the jam to play into those, I think we should look into that as well.

"propel you to stardom" lol
Interesting. Personally I think the games involved can stand on their own well enough for this to be more than just a promotional vehicle.
And here I thought the point of the jam was to make games :/
to me that art challenge thing seems so unneccessary, like why? It's nice if someone wants to, but why should we be forced to use these things?
But enough rambling from me about that, I just don't think you should try and force a rigid system into being in order for those assets to get used.
If you think OGA assets are the main focus then ok. I think the main focus is to make the best game.
also, you misspelled Kymiball as "Kimiball" :'D
@chasersgaming I don't really see the need in always having to tie the art challenges together with the game jams though.
Tbh, who cares about the art challenges?
I certainly do much less than I do for the game jams. :P
