Nobody's hosted a male game jam. I'm saying most other game jams have a minority of women & feminine aligning people. You're not disqualified for being male. Just because your school didn't have a minority, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. My college also has a lot of queer and fem people and yet, I still speak about the discrepency. I don't entirely understand what you see in my view of the world. It's fact that amongst the game industry, women/fem people are a minority. Though that gap's closing and it's becoming more common, it wasn't like that prior and it's not a 50/50 like you describe.

The jam has been great though

Every other game jam is a male game jam. Women and feminine presenting people are amongst a minority within the game development industry. I hope you understand

I agree! Early supporters should get a steam key, especially when developers can make as many as they'd like with no cost and Itch users are a minority compared to the populous that would buy from Steam. This would allow all the updates to be in one place for early supporters who don't want to wait for the Itch.io updates. That being said, I'm also okay buying it again. I ended up buying the game again on steam; it comes included with the OST and they're working hard on making a multiplayer mode. In my mind for the Itch release, you're paying a fraction of the price for the original concept and version of the game. With the Steam release, they're creating a more full-game experience. Mike's other games aren't really given this level of endorsement or expansion, so I think the extra cost is warranted for that reason. So, I think either is fair for the developer, and no one's entitled to a steam key. It'd be a nice gesture though
