Hi folx,

So the jam is drawing to an end and I'm honestly stunned by the response this thing has had. At the time of writing this there are 70 submissions, which is unbelievable to me!

A couple of people had mentioned the idea of doing a game swap, where people trade games, play them, and leave reviews for one another. Reviews and star ratings are really valuable to boost the visibility of your games on Itch, and I think it's a great idea.

Luciella Scarlett has already gone ahead and put the wheels in motion on this, which saves me the job, so if you're interested in getting involved head over to the Google Form they set up and leave your details.#

Thanks!

Hi all! I'm the organiser for the game swap. Just as an update: I will be closing the form and sending everyone's games out starting at AEST 10am tomorrow (PDT 5pm Monday). Please get your forms in before then if you want to be included in the swap! Also, I'm going to suggest 26th July as a rough deadline for folx to either play/review the games or get back to the author with an update - if you don't hear anything by then, let me know and I'll start sending reminders.

Update: all games have now been sent out. If you didn't receive one, let me know (@luciellaes on Twitter or reply to this post). If you missed out but were interested in participating, feel free to contact me and I'll keep you in mind in case anyone comes back with concerns around the game they were given. Feel free to arrange direct swaps as well of course.
