I was waiting to hit the join button until I knew I had something to upload. Since I took so long to decide what I was doing and what game engine I was using, I was about to finish things very last minute, and then GameMaker froze, so time ran out while my computer was rebooting.

My game is not all that developed, so if I had more time for the actual development, I should probably make the game have some sound and animations, and I guess additional levels to make sure it's five minutes of game, but mostly I'd like to just upload the game.

If you'd rather I just upload the game without submitting to the game that's fine as well, I'll just show it to my friends and see how things go next time I attempt a game jam. Either way, thanks for hosting it, and I look forward to playing other people's games when I wake up later.

Unfortunately, I was offering the extension to those who came to me before the deadline because of mini emergencies, or tonight at the deadline because of uploading errors or exporting issues with their engines. What your asking feels like an extension to continue to work on the game, which I am NOT allowing at this time. If you simply need to upload the game, give me the itchio link tonight and I will add it if it qualifies.

Thanks for clarifying, in that case I probably shouldn't have messed with the project files at all before making the build.
I have the game uploaded, and I'll send you the link, but to keep thinks simple I'd rather just not enter the game into the jam if there's any uncertainty.
