not exactly related but when is will you snail gonna be relessed?

Host

Aiming roughly for October but there is no official release date yet.

Submitted

Poooog

Submitted

Can I make non-game changing updates (such as editing music or UI design) after the jam ends?

Submitted

If you're going to do that it would be advised to rename the original game "[Game Name] - Jam Version" and make a second one.

Host

Yeah, either that or you just wait till the one week rating period is over. :)

Submitted

ok, thanks

Submitted

my web build is not working only a download? Cant fix it now. Is that okay

Host

Sure. You can still fix your web build as long as you don't change anything about the game. Important bug fixes are okay.

Submitted

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Submitted

Wait, 10 minutes still left? The world hasn't ended yet? What a miricle!

Submitted

Can I add Web version after submission is ended?

Host

Yes, as long as you don't update them with any additional content, that's fine. :)

Submitted

What does the Topic mean when rating people’s games? does it mean how good the game used the theme “failure is success” or something else?

Host

Exactly.

Submitted

Jonas I had only 7 mins left to upload game so I didn't upload all the screenshots or the description, can I do it now?

Host

Should be possible, yeah.

Submitted

Is it allowed to report people that post games that cost something.

Host

Yes, if I see any I'll make sure to remove them. Same goes for games that were obviously not created during the jam.

Submitted

PLEASE HELP!! The embed game is not fitting in the manually set size in itch.io although I have kept every size data same as the game which I had previously uploaded in itch, although that game had fitted in the frame perfectly... What do I do!???

Submitted

had the same problem, had to upload a zip file for people to download instead, would love to know if you find out how

Submitted

My game isn't downloadable from before, it's neither a zip file... ( /jam/wowie-jam-3/rate/940981 for you to understand what I am trying to say. The actual game is appearing at the top left, very small - although the actual itch.io game page frame is much bigger than that.. That place is being left grey... Whereas in my first project works perfectly fine, in which all the game settings are same as of this (except title, genre, tags, and description) , it is not working...

Submitted

What does the WOWIE rating category mean exactly?

Submitted

I think it means that a game on playing which you will be awe-struck and say "WOW!"...

Jonas says it's general rating.

Submitted (1 edit)

Can I add a webGL version of my game even after the submission period is done? I wouldn't be changing anything just a different way to play.

Edit I have added one, but if told no, would be willing to delete it.

Host

All good, that's fine. :)

Cause I can't English.

No you can.

Hello Jonas! I have submitted my game called Failing Space : Second Chance to wowie jam 3. But for some reason when I go on other people's submission it says :

"You are unable to rate this project because you have not submitted your own entry. You can leave a comment below though."

Can you please help?

Thank you!

Host

You sure you submitted the game correctly? Is there a "Submission to Wowie Jam 3" banner in the top right corner of your game page? If so, it must be an itch bug...

Submitted

Not sure what happened but thank you for being a caring host and adding my work :) 

Submitted

im I alowed to make small patches (bugfixes) after i make the game?

Host

Important fixes that are necessary to play the game: yes.
Fixes for graphics, mechanics, polish: no.

Host

In short: Fixing the game is okay, but improving it not.

Host

Ehhhh... that doesn't make any sense either.... you get what I mean.

Submitted

ok thanks, my game was somewhat unplayable due to bugs

Submitted

Hey Jonas! I was wondering if you could tell me why my game won't show up in any category except for all? https://c0d3d.itch.io/inhabitant It should be under pc but since it isn't it won't get played since few people rate in all categories. Any info would help! Thanks!

Host

I think you need to mark your game as a windows build in the game settings on itch. There should be a dropdown or a checkmark or something. :)

Submitted

Jonas just asking quickly I found a bug that breaks the last level of my game and makes it unbeatable can I update the build?

Host

Yes. Game breaking bug fixes are okay.

Submitted

Would you judge/check the games after the 1 week rating time? Or have you already started doing that?

Does that mean that I can do stuff like make the build take up less space by deleting the editor files?
