Thank you!
I still feel really bad about the database issue I ran into. All the code for it was working perfectly and it worked great in-engine, although as soon as I uploaded the project to itch, it just wouldn't connect. Turns out the website that was hosting the database server wasn't considered secure, which is something I would've had to pay a monthly fee for; Http vs https. Slightly more complicated than that, but that's the easy version.
