Viewing post in but... source code?

my game (Metrum) had github linked the entire time, but I removed it and put source code in downloads. Either way, it is available and I'm marked as no source code

I am no official ruler here, but I marked you as a Y and just added a note for no media files. Normally people just ZIP up the entire project directory and omit the builds themselves.

I'll add that then, just in case. If you download the all pack, one of the zips should have all assets however.

Having just a link t a GitHub repository is fine, IMO it's the preferred way of distributing source code (or GitLab or Bitbucket or any repository). I like to checkout the source with Git, and maybe contribute fixes when relevant.

So you definitely don't need to remove the link to your GitHub project. Adding a ZIP of the source code in its jam state to itch.io is fine too.

I'll end up doing both, but I realized a lot of people skip your game if they can't find a link easily. I'll add the github to my project description as well. Thanks for the advice!
