The Deadline Time

*ahem* So, what time is the official deadline...? (And in what time-zone?)

I'm close to done, I do believe--but it's getting late where I am, and I'm wondering whether I should push for a late night (tomorrow is Saturday, at least) or whether I have time to come back to things tomorrow... ^^;

[edit]

Actually, I've just been reminded that there are some limits to what I can do late tonight, as I have a scheduled power-outage coming up at midnight (around forty minutes from these edits). And while I can still use my computer for a while thereafter--it has a battery--I won't have internet access, and thus won't be in a position to find new ambient music, make builds, or upload builds.

Those last three may have to wait for tomorrow, depending on how things go...

The question is still relevant, however: at the least it may tell me how much time I have tomorrow, if called for... ^^;


Theoretically, 11:59pm March 31st, wherever you are. The extra days are buffer for time zone, technical difficulties, life emergencies, etc.

Aaah, then the deadline has passed! (And since my power went out at about midnight, I was over-time already! Thus I feel that I can't claim the buffer in honesty.) :(

(I thought that I had April 1st, too, based on the wording on the jam-page.)

*sighs*

Ah well, I suppose that I'll finish and upload the game, but not submit it, then. I'm a little sad about it, but so it goes.

Well, thank you for the answer nevertheless! I appreciate it. ^_^

Just submit it. If it's not closed, it's not closed.

I appreciate the thought, but the technical deadline only exists for the sake of things like internet outages and technical problems, I believe; my project legitimately ran over time. To my mind, it would not be honest for me to submit, and so I intend not to.
