The themes are only getting worse



Literally 90% of the themes from round 3 would cause everyone to make the same game. "You are the final boss", "You are the quest giver", "You control the enemies", "Everything is a weapon", etc. Lots of themes that aren't really "themes" are making it pretty far. What I mean by that is a theme is usually "Rouge-Like", "Space Exploration", "Underground", or something very broad. Saying like "You play as this and the enemies are this" would be too restrictive and in all honesty would make the jam quite boring, as everyone's games would have the same major gameplay expectation. I really hope a good theme wins, but for now, it's not looking too good.
