My Submission Got Removed! What do I do? Sticky

Hey Peeps!

So we've been getting questions about why some submissions are being removed. I'm here to shed some light on that and fill you in on why this way have happened and what to do about it.

First off, if your submission was removed, it was removed for one or more of the following reasons:

  1. No playable build of your game was visible
  2. No source code was included for download
  3. You used Paid assets in your game
  4. Your game was published before the start of the jam
  5. Your account was flagged by itch for suspicious activity
  6. Your game had a virus or malware in it

If your game had been a part of the jam, and it no longer is, one of the above reasons is likely why.

If you think your game was removed in error, please comment here with a link to your game and we can either shed some light on your situation or help you with the next steps.

Thanks for understanding!!! <3

Hi! I think my submission was removed: https://seth-field.itch.io/firepower. If it was, I would guess it would be because no source code was included for download. I did have a Bitbucket link to the source code in the description, but I'm not sure if that was enough. If you would be able to I would like some help. Thanks!

I don't think this submission was removed, I don't recall it ever being part of the jam. Perhaps you made the game page but didn't go back and submit it to the jam event? Use this link to add your game back to the jam: https://itch.io/jam/318018/add-game/1554304?token=hv8i5bqai6CsITOVjFo0e9vG0

Have all games now been verified as acceptable?  If mine has not been removed (it hasn't), can I assume it's now been approved?  I don't see any ratings yet.

If you haven't received any messages from me, then your entry followed all the rules.

Hi I noticed some games have been quarantined because they might have dangerous content. Is there any way we can protect ourselves from downloading such content?

I believe I've removed most of those entries. If you find any I might have missed, feel free to share the link here.
