itch.io

My sweetie has been complaining that itch.io is hard to browse.  I looked around, and I kinda see what she means.

One big one is that you can't easily browse down to interesting tags, at least in part because selecting a tag doesn't narrrow down the new tags presented to you.

Lets say I click on browse, swap to physical games, then search for PbTA.  All well and good; I now see all the games tagged as PbTA on the site.  
But there's no sane way to narrow my search,   And there are...ten top tags I can add to my search (albeit only by clicking on the + next to them, but that's a UX bug that doesn't belong in this suggestion).

But if I then click on the down arrow next to "select a tag", what do I see?  "16 bit", "1 bit", "2d" "3d", and "3D platformer".  All tags that have NO overlap with PbtA.    And unlike the top tags, the default behavior on that control -is- to add that tag to my search.

Why not only display the tags that have an overlap with the search in that list?  It should be easy enough to do; the top 10 list is clearly sourced from a search of overlapping tags.  The alternative is...what?  Having a pile of tags in the drop down that have 0 results in them?  What does that serve?

Ah!  If you have issues, the issue is adblock.  I found that ublock origin kills the game.  So disable your adblocker and you're fine.

I ran it on Edge instead of Chrome.

Alas, never finishes loading on Windows/Chrome! 

Cute and fun, though (same comment on ladder; she shouldn't fall off the ladder if she was already climbing and you stop hitting up!)
