Game tag on posts

I think the forums have the unfortunate issue that it’s hard to find the most recent version of a game in case it got updated. I don’t have the ability to edit older posts, and adding updates in a long thread makes them hard to find. The click counts shown by the forum typically have very low click rates for the updated versions, while the version in the first post continues showing growing numbers.

For example, https://games-gallery.jacobcarpenter.com/latest now shows my Space Rocks 3D game, but clicking it launches the initial version which has some known bugs. The latest one has various improvements, but it’s not very motivating to make updates if few people end up finding them :-/

Would it be possible to add some features to the forum to make updated or recommended versions of a game easier to find? It doesn’t need to be a full “Edit post” feature, but it would help if the first post could show a link to the comment with the latest update, especially if it would also be possible for the games gallery to pick that up.
