So as it turns out, I’m not going to be able to make it for unrelated reasons – basically poor time management and misremembering the precise deadline (for some reason I just assumed it was due at midnight my time, not 1pm).
Is submitting late still an option? (In case it’s relevant, I don’t even want a chance at the prize, it was just fun to participate.)
Absolutely fine, yes. When it's ready, all you need to do is post the link to your project page and I take that to itch and generate a submission link to give you so you can upload from that.
I don't blame you for needing a break, I'm a hobbyist dev too and burnout, IRL stuff affects us all.
If you're interested the second jam is on it's way soon, you could hold off from this and submit your game to that one if you wanted so that you can get some votes/ratings and feedback on your game, the prize pool is being expanded also. I'll leave the decision up to you and good luck with the rest of your project.
