Thanks for all of the feedback! I appreciate it. In actually I scrapped a lot about this game but I guess it wasn't enough. I have made games before but never in a jam setting with this little time...and I've never actually published any of my games up until now :) too scared

And I don't think you're being rude at all. One thing that didn't occur to me until I had submitted and THEN had my kids play was "Shrodinger's Ending" lmao I think one of my biggest takaways is that I need to make a build at the end of every day. A lot of the stuff that I found went wrong I didn't notice until after it was built and I didn't give myself nearly enough time for testing. I noticed that because a lot of it wasn't game breaking and never showed any errors during dev, that I didn't know there were issues. 

Considering I didn't even finish my first jam, and I managed to figure out what I did wrong in only a few days I'm pretty happy for making a whole game when my primary skill is 3D art. 

I probably started my game dev journey backwards but what you described sounds harder to me than what I made for some reason.

Also, you mentioned that it didn't work in a specific browser and you had to change browsers...how would I even fix that?

Don't worry too much about the browser thing, I'm sure this is more of Unity's fault than yours. I've played other unity made entries on edge with no problems, but judgind by the logo on the splash screen I think you're using a different version of it that ended up having this problem. (I have no idea tho, I don't use Unity lol)

I'm glad you're still happy with what you've done tho, after all, yourself is always the only person you must always satisfy, at least that's how I think. Hope to see you participating in more jams in the future, they're nice to improve your deving skills and discovering your own limits, and just having some fun with bideo games. (Tho stay alway from the 2 day ones, I don't like them lol)

That's an interesting bug. The thing with the browsers I mean. I used 2020 for this project but it's the first time I've ever made a browser game so I may not have done the build setting right. I'll have to make a note of it and do some digging. 

I plan to keep doing jams. It was a really eye opening experience and it definitely showed me my limits. I didn't think I'd enjoy it as much as I did. Gave me a better understanding of the entire development process since as an artist I really only understood a small part. I plan to do Cozy Autumn Jam and the Asset Pack Jam next.
