Too many files bug

Hey! I have a JS/HTML5 game that's quite small, most likely less than 150 files total, 62.5 MB, yet I'm getting this error message :

Too many files in zip (1827 > 500)

Currently I'm doing a test upload about a month away from release, and before the end of the project, I may add another 50 image files or so, but I'm kind've scared as I can't really condense the game much more. It's very minimal in terms of performance use, is there any way a mod can lift this limit or atleast look into why it's counting this many files?

Looks like I was able to fix the issue by simply copying the files to another folder, and zipping that folder. Not sure why it was showing that many files (could be because I copied it directly from my github repo) Hopefully this helps someone else that experiences the same issue.

If you don't need those additional files for the HTML5 build of the game then you should not include them in the file you upload. It will help the game be processed faster when uploading new builds.
