I tried to play but it wanted me to download/install a bunch of UE and/or Microsoft things and my computer is old and precarious so I didn't want to chance having my Windows messed up.

Hi Mandy, thanks for trying to play! Just for the future if you ever want to play a downloadable game in a game jam, the zip file just holds the info for the computer so that you can play the game. You don't need to install anything just run the .exe. We are however planning to make a html version when we try a jam again, just easier.
I would suggest that you test your public builds on older machines and see what types of requirements and errors they kick up.
Given the kinds of games that you guys develop, and the sizes, a web build won't be viable for everyone. I don't know how big the web build of your 231 MB zipped download would be but there's no way any of my browsers would be able to handle it.
