change in rules?

I feel like the jam page said that we could continue editing our games after the submission deadline? I have a few tweaks to make to the scoring process for my game that would make it a lot better. Oh well. I guess that's what I get for submitting something 12 minutes before the deadline.

From what I  read it sounds like you can   tweak the game page a bunch to add screenshots and videos and whatnot.  But the upload time is sacred and I imagine if you reuploaded after it was over you might get disqualified.  This is my first jam in decades though so I don't know all the rules.  :)

The game state is actually locked so there's no danger of unintentionally breaking the rules . At best what you can do is remove yourself from the jam and then you can do whatever you want, but obviously this blocks you from adding yourself back in. Totally fair. I haven't participated in many of these so I am still learning the rules and ropes .

No, it hasn't changed since the very beginning in 2020: new uploads are locked during voting, but you can edit the description of your entry.

Understood! thanks for the clarification! II'll just add a note to the game description to make it sound like the mistakes were intentional ;-)
