Hi! Jams are exactly for moments like this ,sometimes we can’t finish on time, sometimes things don’t go perfectly, and sometimes we succeed. Just uploading something already feels good. Don’t stress about finishing the game perfectly. This is a beginner jam, especially if it’s your first one. Any small improvement is a success for us. Doing your best is enough.
Uploading a partially finished game is totally fine , what matters is that you learned something and made some progress. I believe you can still upload your game before the time runs out; it won’t be a loss for you. After the jam ends, you can always keep improving the rest of the game.
Here, no one is in a harsh competition; we’re all about support and community. Your participation is very valuable. Thank you for joining and for all your effort. I hope you had a great jam experience!
