Oh no! ☹ We can’t extend the deadline of the game jam, but you can totally submit a game that’s not 100% “perfect” (and you can submit multiple games, or updated versions of the same game!); and you can keep working on your game even after the “end” of the jam as well. We love to see users’ games even outside of the game jam time frame!

So we can submit an updated version of the game just by refilling out the form?

Yep! The uploading entries/judging process is very manual so we are able to pretty easily remove duplicate entries 🙂

On that day it was the start of the opposite war  
(Probably everyone is going to make an opposite account)

I don’t know @asigned_arduino in real life. I’m not kidding.

`signed` is the opposite of `unsigned`. When a number is `signed`, then it can go into the negatives. When a number is `unsigned`, then it can only be positive. Thankfully you don’t have to deal with this in higher level languages like JavaScript and Python.

I see that there is a game with a timer, is that on the same subject as time?
