We do not give that out before the gamejam. Since circumstances may change.
The last gamejam had a payout of 50%-30%-20% due to 5th place game breaking during stream and 4th having assets used that we're not communicated with staff.
The $500 may go up as well, if it does it will be reflected on the itch page.
