Just missed the jam :(

I tried to upload my (mostly) completed game earlier, but managed to miss the deadline by two minutes :(. Might be for the best, since while my game had no game breaking bugs, it had some jarring issues, such as the fire appearing before you had all the items to generate it and extra components I forgot to delete. Am curious if there are any plans for a future jam? Either way, looking forward to checking out some games that did make the deadline.

hey :) 

I鈥榤 sorry to hear that. I know that鈥榮 annoying but never give up! At my first Game Jam it was the same Story. Keep going! Surely they will do another Game Jam in the future. 馃槉

Thanks for your encouragement. I definitely will upload it sometime -- either to a game jam for finishing "old" games or on its own after I have some time to fix it up.

Sorry to hear that man, you can still upload your game to Itch, and now you have a little more experience on how to approach this challenge. Good luck on your future projects, and I hope to see your game on your page soon!

Hello there, sorry for the late response, unfortunately I just saw this topic, it got hidden with all the game exchange ones. Sorry to hear about your experience, you are unlucky if you had your game ready because we did give some extra time to those who asked us in Discord, because multiple people were late with all their builds etc. It's ok though, I hope you learned a lot and had lots of fun with building your project. About whether or not we will do another Jam, after this one is over we (the mods & John) will definitely discuss about our experience organizing this and maybe sometime in the future there will be another one!

Thank you. There are so many kind people in this jam. I still have some things I would like to tweak before uploading the game and am debating the possibility of starting an "Oops! Missed my Jam Jam" for people like me who made a jam game and fell short. I will have to see how it goes.
