Submission Issue – Can’t Join Scream Jam 2025

Hi! I’m trying to reach out here in case any admin can help me. I really wanted to submit my game to the 2025 Scream Jam, but itch.io won’t allow me to. I contacted their support, but after 3 days I still haven’t received any reply. Now the submission deadline is almost over — only 2 days left — and I’ll probably miss the jam, which is the only one I truly want to join. I haven’t submitted a game to a jam for about a year, so I don’t understand why my account isn’t allowed to participate.

Sounds like you were banned from participating to jams, likely due to spamming one in the past. Post your ticket ID here like the rules of this category say and like you see other people doing, and I'll let our admins know. But the time is very short.

That's exactly right. When I was completely new to itch.io, I didn't understand how jams worked and mistakenly submitted to about 6 or 7. I got banned for spam, which they later lifted on my account, but they kept the submission ban in place. I haven't tried to join a jam in over a year, and I'd really only like to participate in this one. It would be nice if they'd at least respond to my messages about it, though.

you want to know my support request number? is 315384

I've let our admins know.

Thank you.
