Could i make the game a multiplayer game?

im working on a bug shooter (Like helldivers) i was wondering if in the judging process if it had the ability to have your friends join and shoot bugs and lunch nukes if it could geta higher rating? or does it not matter if its multiplayer?

Other jammers will rate your game, so if you make your game multiplayer you might struggle getting votes since people usually play jam games by themselves. If you want you can definitely make your game multiplayer, but just be aware of that! (also multiplayer is much much harder)

Remember there's just 7 days left. While multiplayer would be cool, make sure it plays solo as well, so everyone can try it out, even people without gamer friends :)
