Final Week Pro Tips! Sticky

We are less than a week away from the submission deadline!

A few tips as we near the end:

- Get your gameplay done, start to finish, then polish as you have time.

- You can submit early, you then change your submission any time up to the deadline! Have a safety submission just in case. 

 - Once you have a viable product, submit it as a backup in case something goes wrong in the last few days. You can even make it private so no one else plays it until you're ready.

- Give yourself at least a day (hopefully two) to submit your final product and test it.

- Actually download what you submitted and play test it. Common to see incorrect uploads, games that start in the wrong place due to last minute testing, even missing assets that weren't anticipated. Don't let this ruin a great submission!

- You can work on your itch.io page after the submission period ends! Prioritize submitting a polished game before decorating your game's page.
