Thanks for this detailed feedback! I honestly didn’t think too much about the difficulty while developing the game, but after submission, I received plenty of complaints about how the jumping and repeating the calm world became frustrating for players. So, I’m really considering adding checkpoints and increasing the jump force a bit. However, I’m not sure if the mods will allow me to do that since I’ve already updated the game once (for a patch fix). What do you think? This is my first Brackeys Game Jam, so I’m not too familiar with the rules. If it's allowed, I’d definitely make those changes.

By the way, thanks for the technical feedback—it was really informative and will definitely help me polish the game. I’m also planning to expand the game, add more levels, and eventually release it on mobile devices.

Thanks again for your valuable time. I hope your game makes it to the top 5—it was absolutely crazy Sh*t!

Hey! Sorry this is actually my first time participating in this Brackey's jam as well so I can't really comment on what can or can't be allowed as I'm also unsure.

I too, want to update my game's description and also put out a new build to change two lines of code that adjusts the game's difficulty, but I notice that doing that will update the game page and am unsure if that constitutes as making a change. I think you can ask the mods to be absolutely sure if it's allowed (and if you do that, I'd also like to know too haha).

I see you've played Stormbridge, thanks for trying it out and please feel free to let me know your thoughts or critiques on it if you have any, as I am also trying to learn and improve on it! :)

I spoke with the mod named "Just Old Now," and they said you're fully allowed to update the itch.io page whenever you want. However, if you want to make changes to the game files, you need to get permission from one of the admins or mods first.

I also asked about what changes are allowed. There was a glitch in the first level related to the portal and instructions, and he mentioned that if a bug or problem is breaking the game experience—like in my case, where players don't have instructions on where to go and what to do—you can make those changes. Small tweaks to your existing code are also allowed, as long as you’re not creating something entirely new.

For your case, since you only want to change a couple of lines of code, you might get permission for that. Just ask in the help section of their Discord server: Discord Help Section.

Best of luck with your stream game also!

thanks so much for the info! This is good to know! I saw that bit about how you can make a change if it's game breaking, but I wasn't sure what constitutes as "game breaking" as technically the game does function without the changes, but the changes are also minor enough that I'm not creating something new 😅
