I had a bug in the game, so quickly patched it. I am currently having to show a lot of people to go through the steps of updating the game. It would be great for the itch app to automatically check and install the updates.
Keep up the good work!
I have another question if you wouldn't mind.
How do i maintain windows 32 bit and 64 bit installation with butler?
When i tried to update the 32 bit, it automatically overwrote the 64 build. Pretty sure they were name differently.
i havnt tested much because i dont want to screw up anything with my users, but is there a guideline on how to best manage the 2?
bonus question, since it overwrote and i had to reupload the 64 bit, it now says its 2 versions ahead can i edit that?

You need unique channel names if you want to go that way, for example `windows-32` and `windows-64` (file names do not matter).
The itch docs https://itch.io/docs/itch/ are a good resource if you're not sure what to do.
In particular, for Windows https://itch.io/docs/itch/integrating/platforms/windows.html it says: "When in doubt, ship a 32-bit build".
I don't recommend bothering with a 64-bit Windows build, unless you have a very good reason to.

Yes! By default the "version" it shows is just an increasing number, per-channel. However, you can specify a version number, see: https://itch.io/docs/butler/pushing.html#specifying-your-own-version-number
