What time & in what time zone does it this jam start?

Also; aren't you concerned that someone will vote multiple times on the theme, as it is a google doc?

Be sure to add the jam to compohub.net!

Itch.io handles all of the time related stuff. There's a countdown on the jam page.
I will manually sort through the responses and remove any invalid ones.
And I will ASAP!

EDIT: UTC +1

So that would be the timezone the UK is currently in, aka BST, right?

Isnt the UK in UTC+0 ?

Like I thought the whole timezone thing of UTC (Greenwich Mean Time Zone) was based on some random city in the UK and hence the starting point (0).

Although I am not sure if it could have to do with daylight saving or not, timezones are quite annoying :D
