Change of date ?

Hello, 


I thought the game jam was supposed to start the 20th, to the 22nd. Was there a change of date ???

Because I know I've seen the 20th as a start, and it is still 20th to 22nd on github. 20th to 22nd is also the date announced officially by Kenney on Twitter. 

As it is only a 2 days jam, that change can be problematic for some (like me).

I got the date wrong, the jam is from Friday 5PM CEST to Sunday 5PM CEST, so over the weekend.

Oh no... it makes sense though.

This caught my jam team out too! 

UTC+1 time zone so we'll just have a late start and kick off in the morning... Two of our team booked Monday off work though so that's a bummer.

I'm terribly sorry that this happened, I'm not even sure how I picked the wrong dates (maybe I left temporary ones and kept copying those everywhere?) but it's something that I will take greater care of in the future. I'm sorry to hear your team members took a day off for this :(

These things happen! We'll probably do some kind of submission for end of jam & then upload an updated version alongside it on the Monday. Jammers gonna jam.

I'd call this a random event feature for added challenge :v
